Ubuntu’s Unity in 11.04 – Not All That Bad

[ Thanks to Barnaby for this link. ]

“With all the upheaval around Unity and Gnome Shell and
not having used Ubuntu since ‘Breezy Badger’ (that was 5.10) I
thought I take a fresh look at the upcoming version and the new
desktop. Well, it’s not that bad, and at least to me seems more
accessible than the new Gnome because it works in a more
traditional manner.

“Also, Unity actually got up and running where Gnome 3 via the
Fedora live CD just dropped me into fallback mode every time, with
barely functional panels and no right click shell menu. I can only
assess Gnome Shell from what I’ve seen in desktop recordings, but
Unity for me has already won here.”
