    Just Google Chrome and Skype. I feel Steam deserves a spot there too now after reading some of these.

    Yeah, its so much easer to have to remember the exact spelling of every program and make sure you type it in flawlessly than to click on a single icon. Just like how a handcrank is so much better than turning an ignition key to start your horseless carriage.
