I've thought so too. I think it's a little goofy that you have to run both a command line app and a web browser to use it (or at least you did last time I used NXT), but it works fine and it's not a scamcoin. It's got some pretty cool features too. NXT was actually the first altcoin I saw that even had a functional polling feature and a built-in marketplace, which I thought was neat. You gotta remember that a lot of what's happening with the Blockchain is very much Version 1.0 stuff and, maybe some of it could be improved, but this is where it's starting to get exciting.

i think there is an installer for windows now, which might have made things easier. on linux you still need to run a server in a terminal/console, which you then access via localhost in your browser. if you're not fimilar with linux and such its very odd, i agree.
Lots of the nxt features are a bit rough to use, because they really are core transaction types with a basic gui. I think the devs were hoping for plugin developers to take over and make them user friendly. i think eventually all these things will come.

hint for devs: altho nxt is written in java, plugins can be written in many language, such as php, c/++, python. with the asset exchange its also relatively easy to get funding, if you have something good in mind.
