Sure, that's what I need. A pretty picture with a "clickable" cute
button.
Who cares if it has any real merit?
No, apparently no-one.

Speed, power flexibility, etc. are for dummies. What people need is
a way to click on an icon.

Mac users, why don't you consider trading your computer
for a Super-NES? It's much simpler and has a better interface.

(It only has 2 buttons! Imagine that!)
