My experience has been that the users don't learn the alternative
interfaces that are there, even when they have been available for
decades. I've lost track of the number of things that "MVS can't do"
or "VM can't do" that I had been routinely doing. IMHO there's a much
bigger problem in education and PR then there is in actual facilities.
Not that there aren't improvements I'd like to see in facilities ;-)
