They did an exceptional job with it, in my opinion. I think it's substationally more intuitive and caters well to the lowest common denominator while also allowing the "power user" to really fine-tune their bid. They really have made it possible to bid a solid bid in just a couple of minutes.
I know there will be plenty of people bemoaning any change, but we had a lot of very intelligent people working on this and assuming the production platform is as good as the one I've seen, I think I won't be alone in being impressed.
