You missed the point entirely.
I did not but I think that any point that this thread once had has been losts in the mists of time

I have already said that we should move on and I have other things to do

Reading the story, I see no reference to development time or what the application was in order to discern an advantage. Nor do I read where I asked the guy to click a button. What is going on here? Being pushed a little too hard? Not reading all the words? No wonder it seems I am crushing something.

When you read the story, you might understand that the user's resistance to a mouse was a lie. He was simply resistant to change.

A lesson to be learned for the whiners..

   I guess I don't get the point of the story.  Was it:

   1) You used a bunch of development time to implement a keystroke
identical interface to what was already being used to no perceivable
advantage, or

   2) You got some guy to click a button that he didn't need to click?
