Totally agree - a while a go I posted a tutorial on HN about how to create Apple's "Your First iOS App" without using storyboards or IB. It started a pretty good discussion:

That is really cool, thank you for sharing! I also fully agree with the guy that said that the Autolayout support in IB is a nightmare to work with. Plus, IB does _not_ show you exactly what your UI will look like: You have to Build & Run anyway to really see what things will look like, esp. with autolayout.
