I concur with Robert.  I've never seen GPT being associated with any kind
of GUI.  Surely people can design GUI's around gpt, but GPT isn't at all
synonymous with a GUI.
There are advantages of GPT over MBR.  The main benefit in my opinion is
that GPT removes the limits of MBR.
Describing what those limits are is much too cumbersome to do in an email,
but I assure you that information is available online.
