Actually there is a serious difference to me with ribbons. That is they
are not liniar navigation. Movegating I mean navigating but I think I
invented a new word combining navigating with moving.through them
changes depending on where you are and what direction you go. So,
exploring them is more difficult for me.
However, if one can customize keyboard shortcuts, than I suppose I'd be
able to use them more effectively.
Are ribbons in Office customizable? I only know Wordpad ribbons which
frustrate the heck out of me.

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.
