I'm perfectly happy using a well designed, intuitive GUI if it does what I need to get done. If I keep banging my head against something because the GUI doesn't work, doesn't work consistently, or won't let me do what I need to get done, I'll gladly use a keyboard instead.

It is also frequently difficult to use a GUI to script a frequently repeated task.
