This is *not at all* fun for those screen-labourslaves who are concerned. By software that, acccording to EU regulations, has been outlawed 13 years ago. > BTW: The younger (LO) users are the more they accept Ribbons [1]. Because gamekiddies don't have a clue what efficient *work* with computers means. And they don't have a clue of what halfway ergonomic application software can be like. I have ~25 years of experience as an information worker, mostly producing long, structured documents with various applications, on various operating systems. > Ribbon controls intend to show all at once, as Astron says.

No halfway proficient screenworker who needs to get actual work done efficiently will ever use "touchscreens".

No I won't, because it obscenely evident to anyone who has ever tried to get a clue of visual ergonomics. E.g. the rule to (almost) never use "seperation lines" in tables is as old as LaTeX, iirc.
