I personally don't like Micro-TableViews which are, lets say, smaller 
than 10000 pixel. I think handling etc. is much worse that a 
PopupButton. Therefore if you plan to use a TableView you have to make 
it much bigger  than the PopUpButton. Which is just impossible if you 
have lots of them. NSBrowser has  the same problems. It consumes more 
space. So if you have  to present an option with n-items I tend to use 
a Popup. At least if the option is used seldom and n < 300. If you have 
to use it always a NSBrowser might be appropiate. However there's 
another possibility: Hide the options behind some "Advanced"-Button. I 
hate that.

Any other ideas?
