> unable to navigate file systems In 5 years I'd assume that skill will be completely obsolete for "normal" people. Heck even as a programmer I loathe navigating files and am searching everything as much as I can. Sure some kids will need to learn about file systems as they grow up, just as some of us learned how boot loaders work or how CPU are architected. But I wouldn't put that as mandatory literacy even today. > regular PC applications Looking at the latest developments from Apple and Microsoft, I don't see "regular" PC applications staying much different from phone/tablets one for much longer either.
