  "User-Friendly" was a term that became a fad for a while in all computer ads and articles and then thankfully faded away. It got so bad that one writer suggested that when you hit the words 'user-friendly" that you substituted the equally-meaningless words 'lemon-scented', and it would be just as valid.
