I know what you mean by the "Win 95'ish" GUI.  But the "look" is primarily 
established by the icons in the toolbar/speedbar.  It is very much like 
Apoint's GUI, IMHO.

And.. you can change the fonts from the defaults.

Sempoint has a closer relationship to Apoint's features.  For one example, 
Sempoint's "Speed bar" is Apoint's "Toolbar".  A neat thing with Sempoint's 
version is that you can move it to the side or to the bottom.

Take your time.  There are a *lot* adjustments you can make in the top 
Configuration menu.  And.. I think you will be impressed with the fairly 
complete context-sensitive help. The Help is totally searchable too.
