>Now, with a menu bar you could reach the “About” dialog box with one single click, and dragging the mouse around. With this thing, you need at least three clicks, and you need to know where you have to click. A giant step backward with no apparent advantages.

This guy talks about some menu options like everyone accesses them 10 times a day. Who cares if 'About' is tucked away somewhere. Has anyone ever used the 'About' button in a browser? What for?

I much rather have a clean screen with fewer buttons than the 'About' button sitting there, never being used.

edit: read the other parts as well now and while some of it is nit-picky I recommend the series to all! worth a read.
