Nope! I never got that far. Ten minutes trying to get real work done
under Unity was enough to make me stop dead in the middle of my day and
move to Mint.
Unity still makes absolutely no sense. ;)
Why did they think switching to it was a good idea...
It's a control/ego thing, and there was a pissing match between the
Ubuntu guys and the Gnome guys.

Yup. Shuttleworth is getting money-happy and some of the nuttier

Yup. Ubuntu is no longer a viable distribution in its own right, but
it serves as a good base from which others (like Mint) can build a
usable distribution.
Yeah, it does function as a good base. ;)
