    I saw the new 2.7 interface on the screencasts. Looks nice. Has anybody here actually tried it?

    I didn't want to jump in on this too early, but in the absence of responses(!) from others....

    I really like the new interface. 2.5 introduced some new ideas, but didn't address usability in the way it should. I've found that if you're doing a lot of work in the back with 2.7 you can really do things a lot more quickly. It's more customisable, and, as important in some ways... it looks cool when you show it to a client. I know that shouldn't be an issue, but as someone who has to help a client choose a CMS I find that often they'll choose pretty over functionality. One client was insistent on Joomla, once, because they preferred the back-end. No matter that their productivity would have suffered.
