sorry for getting slightly off topic.

of course it did. aesthetics sometimes has the tendency to shadow
functionality. think of the well known and beautiful philipe starck
lemon squeezer: it is a pain (or at least "messy") to use. that is not
what i call good design. a big deal of beauty lies in functionality,
too.
and concerning pd: all attempts of beautifying it did not contribute so
much to the pleasure of working with it as the interactive way of
working itself - thus functionality again - did.
