And what's the point if it's a downgrade for users? To prove they are "awesome"? Nobody said it's easy to launch, we never doubted that. We are simply stating a fact - that iOS6 feels handicapped if you're going to rely on maps. And maybe t

No, in Mac OS X you can have as many levels of folders as you want. I'm not sure what the article is trying to say… In fact, Mac OS X still relies in directory structure to… well, give structure to its filesystem. We still have /usr, /Volum
