What's this obsession with global menus?
Okay. Then, no menus? Icons to launch a given set of applications,
and the rest from some sort of command line? Would you give this to
your one-button Mom?

My mom isn't so dumb. She uses an oven with knobs and buttons. She uses
a calculator that changes behavior at the flip of a switch, and she
drives two different cars that have different radio controls and. I
think that she can also figure out differences in computers. It is the
55 and older crowd who seem to get confused. My mom falls just under
this, and my Dad just above it. We are not going to change the world by
converting them. The ones who already use computers regularly could be
converted, the others don't care. If you want to change a view or
attitude in society, then you must change the hearts and minds of the young.
