At least one person agrees with me. :)

Then again, I have always been "Mouse-centric" since I started on the  
Mac. I do respect the fact that there are keyboard-centric people as  
well; mostly from the PC world.

Funny thing though, at my old workplace that I have just retired from  
(where they are all PCs), they are now focussing mostly on using a  
mouse as opposed to the keyboard in their internal software. ;-)

PS. It is important to handle the user's return/enter key-presses  
appropriately in your own software.
