It's like using a framing nailer.  Great tool, but if you have to just tap
an existing nail in place, a simple hammer is the quicker solution :)

I love it, Ron.  This is a great analogy.  Although I might say that it's
even more like a cordless drill and a good old screwdriver.  If there's more
than one screw, the overhead of getting out the drill and slapping in the
battery and the bit is worth it.  But one screw doesn't justify the extra
work.

Of course, then you've got people who insist on using a screwdriver to pound
in a finishing nail, but none of those folks are on THIS list...
