I understand where you are coming from but look at it from the reverse
side. i.e. Using Wordpress you click on a button and that brings up a
url box. You insert the url required press enter. Now you are given a
title box, which you enter, etc. Wordpress uses tidymce as a text
editor. Obviously Chris could install tidymce but I think what he
might be saying is he wants this out of the box.

Drupal is an excellent and complete cms and I think a joy to use as
you start to understand nodes, users, etc. but it is not simple.
Wordpress however works well in its simplicity and probably does
exactly what Chris wants.

I am not intending to start a flamewar by the way. I am simply stating
that WP and Drupal probably have two different user groups.
