> No - you are not alone! You are so VERY not alone! Google deserves a lot of credit for standing up to a world full of icons and symbols and instead showcasing the power that has existed in text since (anyone care to throw a number in here?) Not that a lot of us were not already aware of this, prefering to shell our way into Vi before double clicking 4 symbolic levels of folders and files and whatever else might be standing in between us and the file we want before being allowed access to it. But without Google showcasing the fact that there was just as much profit (if not more) in text as their was in the Flashing christmas tree light ads of the mide late 90's, building success around such a simplistic and cost effective technique I can only imagine the Flash-based hell we would be living in had they not chosen such a bold approach to their business model.
