I hate that it is only available for iOS 6. I can't upgrade from 5.1 because my Mac is too old to use the newer versions of Xcode.

You are running a computer that is more than six years old and complaining that you can't use an app that came out today?

Wonder how Apple approved this app. It doesn't do anything (I mean, anything) if you forgot about the "get in the line" moment. I'm sure once you get access to it maybe it's the coolest but still wonder how Apple approved the app with this type of hack built-in. 274,000+ people in front...I might eventually forget about this.

Unless my computer can run iOS, I'm confused by your comment.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

He probably deploys apps from Xcode to his device. Since his computer can't handle the iOS6-compatible Xcode, he has chosen to not update the device to iOS6.
