        Exactly.  I would rather have a ready terminal and type "ff" to 
load Firefox, than take my hands from the keyboard to use the mouse, 
move a cursor around to find a menu, click another menu, and then click 
on the Firefox selection, return my hands to the keyboard, and then 
finally be ready to start browsing the web.  Mice reduce productivity, 
big time, and what may appear at first glance to be too complex and 
cumbersome, is actually far more fast and efficient.
