You're kidding right?
I thought it looked plain and uninspiring. Basic, confusing...lots of check boxes and ugly buttons. With PT I can kid myself I'm using a full on studio. Reaper felt like using a word processor for music.
However
Bulls hit - definitely agree with pretty much all your points - and if you can skin it, then I guess it renders the ugliness argument moot.
Although waveform editing felt much more removed and inaccurate compared to PT (probably my inexperience, although the whole auto-fading thing started to do my head in after a bit - I never felt confident of exactly what I was doing).
BUT - I used it for 2 days. These are just first impressions. I found PT a lot easier to get comfortable on (coming from Logic/Cubase).
