OK, but even now Windows folks have largely given up on pressing <windows>/<All Programs> and looking for what they want.

There's simply too much stuff on a typical computer these days for a user to pick out what they want from a dropdown, yes, even if nested.

It is the same problem that Yahoo once had back in the day when it tried to "Categorize" the internet. At some point such attempts at categorization break down and you gotta look at more sophisticated strategies for search.
