People who can not grasp dropbox thinks it's bad, it's that simplistic. Irony
of it all is that it is actually a very simplistic design that is both
fast, reliable and annoyingly easy to work with. Sure we could cope
without all that syntactic sugar (a suckmore frontend anyone?) but
that is not the fault in design but simply the tools which has way to
much options in order to please everyone and their mother.
