Personal preference, I guess.  I'd rather have the program name in the
menu bar until I want to see menus.  I found while using A-Max that
Mac programs' highly-standardized menus :-) made it hard to tell which
program I was in, if any (as opposed to the desktop menu itself).  I
haven't used MultiFinder, but I can imagine it would be that much worse.

If you're only running one program at a time, though, it might not be
too bad.  But I guess I'm just a multitasking sort of guy.
