I really hope Gnome remains an option, because this new interface sucks. It screams OSX.

It seems the Ubuntu developers are living on another planet. Everyone knows NETbooks are primarily used for mobile net access and most web developers will tell you that the minimum resolution they support is 1024 pixels wide. What happens when you throw a panel on the SIDE of your desktop? Well in the case of netbooks with 1024 native resolution you get a browsing experience that's incompatible with most modern websites. Fucking excellent job you absolute morons.

unity isnt bad now, besides its still being improved

[pomchujohn]

The difference is OSX just works and Unity does not.

OSX is regarded as the most user friendly system going. but Unity is like a giant smartphone made by Fisherprice.

for 2year olds. it feels cluncky and flakey.

This UI is a fucking joke. They're gonna suck cock massively if they phase it in as the default GUI for either desktop or notebook versions. I really hope they will pick up the pace and deliver a reliable UI, but that seems a bit far fetched now. I guess I'll have to move to KDE until they come up with something worth considering.

@thomasward00 laughing real hard at "Ubuntu forcing standards". What a great world that would be, let's all be like Ubuntu and release pre-alpha quality packages in our official releases and to hell with if our system actually works or not. Debian unstable is more reliable and standards based than Ubuntu will ever hope to be. And like it or not, Debian is the standard setter. Ubuntu = The Microsoft of the Linux world. Keep your Unity crap Ubuntu, we don't need it.

Ugh. If there's ever a time that I have to install Ubuntu again, I hope and pray they haven't tied that crap so deep into the system that you can't replace it with a proper UI.

unity sucks. long live gnome panel!

[adolson]

This is stupid. They can't even get their cloud storage to work properly and reliably, and now they're going to put out their own desktop that replaces GNOME with a tenth of the functionality?

Is there another debian-based distro to look at, or am I going back to vanilla once again?

[subkidproductions]

@thomasward00 Buy Ubuntu?

What the crap is wrong with you?

[thomasward00]

A software company needs to step up and make Linux grow up so that it can be accepted by more people...

Hopefully Ubuntu can force some standards, make a reliable foolproof OS and people will buy it..

No more Gnome or KDE, Ubuntu needs to create it's own interface and driver standards.

@Redicaluss Wow... that hurt... Mac OS X is THE best interface ever. shame that no one that has sense can afford one :C
