It's a European thing, I believe.
Maybe I'm a keyboard junkie because I cut my teeth in PCs back in the DOS
days but keyboard menus don't bother me in the slightest. In fact I
probably prefer them and find them much faster to navigate but I agree that
they should have a mouse option for the 'windows' generation.
It's leftovers from the console port, lame but only tolerable cause the
sim is so damn great.

So that's where all those "Are you sure you want choose the 'Yes I'm
sure' option?" pop-ups came to Windows... :-P
Seriously speaking, it's a console thing.

I don't mind the keyboard menus at all, but I don't think that's what
the parent poster was on about.
I'm a linux user except for my gaming, for the most part (though
admittedly I'm posting this from a Win2K box w/ Thunderbird), so I'm
used to using a keyboard and having it do what I ask it to do without
question. IE, I typed "rm -rf <dirname>" because I wanted to type it,
so don't ask me if I really meant to do it. RBR has an awful lot of
that "Did you really mean to go to Profile, hit enter, go to Save
Profile, and hit enter?" Yes. I did mean that. Quit asking me.

Quit asking me.You nailed it SWERVO thats exactly what I meant. I can understand a
CONFIRM as a second level confirmation (like when you delete a file)
but geeez everytime you make an entry on the keyboard is a bit rich.
still think the sim is excellent though 9/10 for mine
