Guy I worked with used it pretty successfully for Trek. It's a difficult font, but it's not inherently evil like Optima, Comic Sans or Papyrus.

How is Optima inherently evil? Used properly (e.g. printed at high resolution on glossy paper for some art book, or printed letterpress) it’s absolutely gorgeous.

I don't think any fonts are inherently evil... it's the people that use them you have to watch out for ;-)
