[Usability] Questions

[Juan Manuel <ptero 4 gmail com>]

I just saw chapter 4 of the gnome hig 2.0. And I want to know. Why the
menubar must be put inside the application window? Is there any REAL
usability difference between putting a MacOS-like menubar applet in
the top panel which shows the menubar of the active app. And the
current windoze-like way of using the menubar? Or is it just that it
MUST LOOK LIKE WINDOZE B/C M$ WANTS IT or somesuch M$ drone nonsense?
