How long do you think it will be before someone figures out a way to use/fake Sarkozy's IP addresses (or all government IP's?) for obviously illegal P2P and get them knocked off the net?
No, in the US to date the content companies WANT 3 strikes laws but none of the state legislators have been bribed enough to pass a law that will be struck down by the courts anyway.
So long as there is the option to use the standard interface/menu bar that I can turn on so that I can do my work without trying to figure out how YOU think I should work, you can do whatever you want.
I happen to LIKE the menu bar, I know where everything is, and can find anything quickly and easily. Hiding all of the programs functionality makes it LESS usable, not more.
A large number of my clients have refused to move off of ms office 2003 because they aren't interested in everyone having to waste however many man-hours learning a new interface. And that is to say nothing of the forced change to.*X format which has pissed off even my stalwart MS loving customers.
I'll switch to a touch interface when I get a touch interface. Till then it's a waste of screen real estate that will probably get revised upon being actually used with a touch interface anyway.

I think that some of those changes may have already occurred. In the bar scene Uhura orders a drink called a cardassian sunrise.
