I agree. I am a successful writer and am not considered stupid in any circles. Right brained people like myself here in "Hollyweird" are a huge chunk of Apple's market but we generally are not however, interested or willing to spend so much time diddling with setup. The overload of preferences in both DragThing and Butler are no doubt fine for techies and the wonderful folks who write software for the rest of us. I just wish they would remember and respect that we just want to USE the software, not literally hours tweaking it before we can. When someone loads music to their ipod or puts a DVD in the player, they just want to sit back and enjoy. I don't expect them to read music and tune the player, like an instrument. I'm asking for the same ease of use. No more.
