摘要：

It is argued that too often designers of computer systems equate functionality with usability or view usability features as limiting functionality. After some comments about system functionality and usability, and why designers may avoid focusing on usability, evidence from the literature demonstrating that functionality and usability are complementary system characteristics is cited and discussed.
