Also it might appeal to the search-and-click types. Using keyboard to launch stuff is faster and convenient for those who don't like to use mouse much. FARR is for such persons and if you are a mouse-type person, just give FARR a try for a week or so and see for yourself. And, most often I won't even type the name of the program because I see the list of last 10 applications that I launched in FARR window. So it's as simple and fast as Alt+space, then pressing a number corresponding to the program to launch it. unagieel: Start -> Programs might be okay for someone who has very few programs installed.

Start>programs or this confuscated mess of installing FARR, registering, getting a license, launching it, typing the program. I'm confused, do we hate Windows that much that we are willing to make things more difficult? How is this better exactly?
