Ribbon and Interface info

Here are two links I find particularly good:

http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9176254/Dissecting_Microsoft_Office_2010_

This quote is particularly interesting seeing as Mathcad has followed the now reversed idea of the silly orb at the top left of the application:
"the Office orb button from Office 2007 ... thoroughly confused people -- many thought it was a piece of branding eye candy rather than a functional button."

Yep - I don't liek the idea of the brand being the place you click to save and load files - and with that quick menu at the top it almost isn't needed...

To Ribbon or not to ribbon:
