Good analysis! And in the ~30 second time span you have to give a first
impression, both are the same. Also, reviews in magazines/blogs always
use only the default.

Also a correct analysis. Actually, this might be the reason why people
seeing GNUstep for the first time often feel so alienated. Because their
current look is what their platform gives them, not what GNUstep comes
with. Accordingly, GNUstep tries to get rid of what they like (in this
psychological perspective). Advantage of those who use GNUstep already:
they know how to switch back to the NeXT-look.

When people cheer about NeXT, they usually cheer about its great concept
(floating main menu, services, ObjC, etc.)? This should work
with platform-colored menus and light, transparent icons/buttons
just as fine and as usable.
