What I _don't_ like is the ergonometrics of the window cut/paste. To use it you have to move your hand to the mouse and mark out, then back to the keyboard to paste using the Amiga key on the same side as 99% have their mouse. I prefer the snipit approach of left Amiga and select/menu - with practice most cut and paste is done without moving the hands in between.
