The new GUI is fine, if you're working on a large screen monitor 22" or larger. But when it's installed on a laptop, and you're using it for live performance that GUI takes up at least 1/3 of the screen real estate. This is a 17" "Entertainment" model notebook that I got specifically for the larger screen.

(Laptop: HP Pavilion DV7-1285DX ; OS: Win7/Pro ; Res: 1440 x 900 (highest); Color: 32-bit)

It would be nice to have some way to either shrink that GUI, or turn parts of it off for "performance mode" and reclaim some of the screen.

Just sayin'....
