A GUI that always immediately reacts to it's user. On an Amiga any time you clicked something you immediately got a visual indication of the click, icon image change, button change, etc... The GUI even changed if the task was going to take a while to operate.

With a certain PC OS, half the time you click and see nothing change so you click again only to then get two of whatever you opened.
