I think it's a kinda neat way to use a computer.

Terrible. Maybe I am old-fashioned but I hate it when a website changes just because I moved the mouse over some event-triggering control. If I want it to do something, I click!

Seems kinda like the way Tom Cruise handled that computer in Minority Report...

It needs getting some mental adjustment, but one can get used to it.

Yeah, well, I also hate the fact the buttons move around, but implemented right, it could be interesting.

Since my laptop insists on clicking things if I hover too long over them, I'm more adaptable to this, I think. But since I use Quark, Photoshop, InDesign and various other click-heavy apps at work, my mind screams at me for not clicking fast enough.

But change is inevitable, right...? :stars:
