There is a place and a time for drop-down. But it's just not every single field and every single time in every single form, a drop-down for some list of twenty items? It's overused, it's cumbersome, it's brainwashing. People don't even bother try entering the value if it's not on the drop-down. Crazy.
Certainly, a good ui should provide both keyboard entry and dropdown.
