Yes, the site is a triumph of clarity and usability. You see, they did usability research just like Gnome and KDE, and came to the same conclusion-- it is more intuitive to hide everything, and to require multiple redundant mouse-clicks to do even the most trivial task. With luck, users who rely mainly on the mouse will develop roaring cases of carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive-strain injuries, and then Linux will conquer Windows once and for all.
