Overall it was a very good review of biab which we users can only endorse to the highest degree.

However this part of the review certainly rang a few bells of past threads on the forum as regards the GUI, which to be honest I am not having any great deal of difficulty with.

OLD WINDOWSAlthough BIAB 9.0 is capable of some amazing feats, the application has one major drawback that must be addressed: its user interface looks old and is hard to use. The appearance reminds me of dated DOS or Windows 3.x applications (see Fig. 3). In general, the program's controls and menus are difficult to navigate and operate. Also, BIAB doesn't support many standard Windows keyboard shortcuts, the menu choices are long and complex, and navigating through files is tedious.

Worse, some of the menus shift off the screen; I was constantly moving the window around to read and select many of the choices. (This problem doesn't occur at high display resolutions.) Also, inputting some data is inefficient, and actions that should take only one click require two or three. Despite all this, the application runs well. I spent many hours using it, and it rarely crashed or hesitated.unquote:

I'm sure if they did another review of biab they would come up with a positive review again, wondering why the UK mag Soundonsound haven't done one, if I remember correctly they did in the past.

Maybe it would be in PGmusics interest to send a copy of biab to the above mag.
