I was about to respond about halfway through the thread, then I made it to the end and saw that Trond said most of what I wanted to say.

The new look doesn’t bother me at all. Which is a bit ironic considering that I've griped extensively about every single change to the look that Apple has introduced to Mac OS--System 5, System 6, System 7, System 8, OS 9, OS X.1, X.2, etc. I’ve also been pretty down on every look-and-feel change MS introduced in the history of Windows.

Compared to Reaktor, the Max 5 look seems fairly restrained. Compared to Pd _anything_ looks more aesthetic. I've got bigger things to worry about then whether the corners are round or not. And if it is such a big issue for a UI, we’ve still got imageburgers, don’t we?
