Well, while I criticize MS for never really getting the Mac UI when 
they copy surface features of it, the dogma of the mouse on the Mac 
is even more ridiculous. I know that the studies show that mousing in 
a UI designed for mousing is faster than using the keyboard. I don't 
understand how that translates into eliminating menu keyboard 
shortcuts as a standard, so that the choice is left up to the user.

And don't get me started on the 1-button mouse!
