I personally am not impressed with Unity. I think it looks and feels too much like Moblin. It may be good for a netbook or other screen-real-estate limited device (I'm not even sure on this point), but a full-size desktop? Not thanks. I usually have multiple windows open on multiple desktops, and having windows open and covering the icons so I can't open more windows just does not fit my workflow. I imagine opening a terminal and ending up with a single 1680x1050 xterm devouring my screen. Worse, in a font that is large enough so that the terminals size is still 80 columns by 16 lines and can be read by someone 2 rooms away... :)
Having said all that, I have never used Unity. It may be the best thing since the invention of the computer, but I don't think so. Just my 2 cents. --b On Tue, Nov 9, 2010 at 7:08 AM, Klistvud <quotati...@aliceadsl.fr> wrote: > Howdie, fellow Debianites! > > As you probably know, Ubuntu is planning to replace X11 with the Wayland > Display Management System, and replace Gnome with Unity.
