Salane, your mockup is awesome. What we need to do is push Ubuntu into the future. We can do this be following some of Salane's ideas. The idea of having your username right next to the menu button is genius. The userswitch applet could go right there.
Also, the File manager does look a little safari-ish, but that is because everything is unified. THe secret to enticing new users is not to have a million features, it is to pick a set, work really hard on them, and make it unified. One example of where things are unified is Konqueror. It is both a web browser and file manager. with work, It can be expanded to also be a media player, document editor, etc etc. "Why have many when you can have one" -- Ubuntu FTW!
