 Precisely, precisely, and precisely.

I miss the menus, but that's because I was "raised on" the menus.  There's 
nothing that's more intuitive about the menu system than the ribbon system, 
it's just that those of us who were used to the former were quite jolted by the 
latter.  The relocation of stuff, particularly since I don't use keyboard 
shortcuts as my primary access method, was very jarring.  The majority of "the 
common controls" use the same keyboard shortcuts that they have since the 
inception of MS-Office.
