While I wouldn't go quite that far, I have to say that I like the OW interface very much, for precisely the reason that it is out of my way ... I know where things are and I don't have to think about them. I am always amazed at how het up some people get about little things, like the new user of Scrivener who immediately posted a new icon for the dock because he couldn't bear using it with the icon that most people love ... what he produced was totally hackneyed in comparison.

But I have to say, I only have the location bar and the status bar visible in OW.
