point-and-drool interface
(Or "point-and-grunt interface") A parody of
"{point-and-shoot interface}", describing a windows, icons,
and mouse-based ({WIMP}) {graphical user interface}. The
implication, of course, is that such an interface is only
suitable for idiots.
See {for the rest of us}, {WIMP}, {drool-proof paper}.
