“Ubuntu 11.04 dubbed Natty Narwhal will bring some
major changes to the traditional Ubuntu desktop. As the
conventional desktop gets a major overhaul, the spanking new Unity
interface is busy preparing itself to replace the time-honored
Gnome interface. Furthermore, some well-known default applications
are getting replaced by newer and more feature-laden ones. While
many users have welcomed these changes with open arms, a few
disapproving nods have raised doubts over their success.

promises to bring a burst of freshness to the Linux desktop along
with a slew of new users.“Here are 11 features that will make Ubuntu 11.04 worth the long
