Boy, is that right. But I know a good one when I work with it; I imagine we all do, since things are just easier, more intuitive, and more productive.

And that was very helpful in making the main screen look better and be more usable!!!

But once you click on something in the menu it can really get confusing again! smile The worst example is Options/Preferences where you are presented with an overwhelming dialog box with 26 settings and 30 buttons that each launch additional dialogs!

I can't prove it but I'm sure lots of folks, young and old, are turned off by the GUI! I know I was (and still am) back when I bought the software!

It really isn't about the old fashioned look, rather, about how complex and confusing it is. Google does one thing. Compare the BIAB Options/Preferences dialog with Google!

Functionality is king of course but there are MANY software products that have figured out how to make their GUI highly functional AND fun to use and that is a GOOD thing! I want to enjoy my time in front of the computer!
