Intuitive? Hu. From Wikipedia: "Intuition is the ability to acquire 
knowledge without inference or the use of reason."

I do not know of *any* computer or computer program that can be run 
without inference or the use of reason.

Any time I hear "intuitive" within the IT context, I jump to a gun.

To do that, they need training. Much training. First to forget that a 
computer is no typewriter, then to change their (bad) habits.
