“At the time of writing this article, Ubuntu 11.04
codenamed “Natty Narwhal” is still very much in its nascent stages
of development. I really wanted to take it for a spin and write
about my first hand impressions on latest build Ubuntu Natty. I
installed Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal Alpha 1 in my USB drive and
things went pretty smooth from the word go.

“Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal Review

“Canonical had decided to go with Compiz instead of Mutter as
the default window manager for Ubuntu Unity. The very first results
of integrating Compiz with Unity has already starting to show up
big time in the first alpha release of Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal.
Screenshot above is a case in point which show off Compiz expo
plugin at work in latest Ubuntu Natty release.”
