only because you are used to the classic buttons. for a new user i think the ribbons make sense. unfortunately the curse of microsoft office is that EVERYONE knows the old version so the ribbons make things hard to find.

By that thought, does that mean I can drive freely at 100mph and suffer no consequences?
If we are talking about the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, what if my happiness is raping children? Does that mean I should be allowed to pursue my happiness without punishment?
What if I like beastiality? Should that be allowed since it is part of my "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness"?

I'm not sure that I would agree. The only difference here is that it is a communist country. While I agree the web blocking is more extreme than the US, the spying certainly is not.
The only difference is that in the US, you don't really know you are being spied on. In this instance, you will get a popup advising you that your keystrokes may be recorded.
I do find the comment that sports reporters access may disrupt security in Tibet hilarious. China has been trampling on the Tibetan people for years.
If the US did not owe China billions of dollars, we would give a rip. Hence why Bush is going to the opening ceremonies and other European leaders are not. We are beholden to China for manufacturing and debt holding.
It is sad that China was given the Olympics, but who would expect the IOC to not be political and take cash in exchange for the games?

In all seriousness, I work for a hospital and this stuff is going to blow up. My first baby is due in August and I will be plugging into HealthVault. He will have an entire lifetime of vaccine tracking and medical history at his fingertips.
This will revolutionize health care and is leaps and bounds from the binders of medical records and documents that make health care so difficult.
From a personal standpoint, the Google EPHR was just hideous. It looked like everything Google and just felt hard to read and decipher. HealthVault is a much cleaner interface.
