Mice suck

Everyone is completely out of their minds.  Why?  The Mouse is why.  Mice are totally a fad which has long outworn its welcome.  In the future, we won't point and click, we will speak, type, gesture and think our way to our goal.  Our computers will attempt to guess more what we want.  This is what we should be focusing our efforts on.  Not yet another GUI.   I remember how the Mac made the mouse popular back in the 80's.  We were so wowed by the amazing graphics of that monochrome 10 inch CRT.

I was so much faster without a mouse, in the text-only days.  I remember working with CAD without a mouse and it was so much easier.  Everything was faster and better without a mouse. 

The world is totally crazy with how much time they spend on the GUI, the visual appearance of something.

I am not against graphics when graphics are required.  But until that point, I much prefer a minimalistic approach.  Everything should be commands with command completion and short-cuts and aliases... etc...  I should be able, for example, using speech recognition, to speak to the program I am using.

When WYSIWYG is required, such as a spreadsheet, there should be a standard way of navigating, from cell to cell, etc..  Granted, most Windows programs have this, but its not always clear what it is and it's not always enforced.

I sometimes think, for example, how much easier it would be if I could edit my video using text, instead of clicking around.  I am slowly migrating my entire OS environment BACK to text.
