I have already mistakenly thought that I was looking at a new register and complained that certain issues had not been fixed, when they actually had been fixed (Thanks, Robert for correcting me).
The next reason is that the new view does fix several subtle problems and add some new capabilities. A very important one is that it will actually make GnuCash much easier for newbies to learn and use. This should keep many of the potential users that try GnuCash then give up because they believe that it is not user friendly. You can surely think of other reasons, but I will close with the very standard marketing tactic - New Look!!!!! You must have this baby in your garage!!!!
