I agree. I get the impression that most Windows users ignore it entirely, and I know I have coworkers who use MS Word for pretty much all their note-taking. I use Notepad for basic notes, and WordPad if I need fonts, italics and bullet points. I doubt my victims notice the difference, since WordPad saves documents in .rtf and most folks open .rtf docs in Word. But whenever I start up a new PC, one of the things I do early is teach it to open .rtf documents in WordPad.
