Re "Frankly, though, I prefer menu-based apps" - well, to each his own, but
menu-based apps require users to learn the menu system. Graphical user
interfaces do consume more screenspace, but they are far more intuitive --
especially when letting the mouse hover over any control produces a popup
that describe that control's usage.

And in the end you have "Word"-like software. Granted, letters produced
by "Word" look like crap, but the UI is very intuitive.
