For me, the biggest turn off in a GUI is if its too big- ZASFX/Yoshimi, RG and to a lesser extent Ardour all suffer from GUI's that are a nightmare for smaller displays such as netbooks and older/budget laptops. I do like the look of Ardour but I still believe it needs to go on a bit of a diet. There are still many perfectly good laptops (Core 2 Duos etc) that can't do any better than 1280x800 but I'd encourage devs to try and get their apps to fit nicely onto 1024x768 to be even more inclusive.

I'd be interested to know what, in your opinion, makes a GUI 'state
of the art' as opposed 'late 90s'. In other words, a list of features,
properties etc. as opposed to just an example to look at.
P.S. I'm not trolling. I really want to know.
