Laura,

One issue we frequently encounter with the GUI layout is different 
default font choices on different platforms.  Up until now we have 
followed the system look and feel, and on MacOS that generally requires 
more space than on Windows.  I noticed your screen prototypes typically 
use Windows layout conventions -- you might want to try it under a MacOS 
look and feel to be sure it all still fits.
