The first and most honest answer is familiarity, I suppose. The second honest answer is that, although I have been using TB for a fair time on a netbook, I have not really fully explored the potential.

Having spent a lot of years slowly learning exactly what TP will do, and how to do it, I suppose I am taking the ostrich view, and staying with TP for as long as I possibly can.
