If any developers out there are listening (including folks at BB :) I by _far_ prefer text based programs. In fact, the only graphics based programs that get used on my GS are games and graphics programs. Other than that, the graphic stuff is just too slow for my taste. Sure, graphics are great for somethings, but unless that database lets me store graphics images, or that spreadsheet puts graphs and charts on the screen at the same time as my cells, I'd by far prefer to see the program switch between text and graphic screens as necessary.
