It was designed for, and is widely used by, the graphics and audio professionals crowd.

The ability to use touch sliders, filmstrips, etc. is a huge boon.

It just gets a ton of hate here on HN because obviously there's very little overlap between the populations.

A lot of people forget that "Pro" has never referred to software professionals, it's always referred to multimedia professionals.
