Just my opinion here, but i've used both Unity and gnome-shell and a |
| 24 |
*MUCH* prefer Unity (IMO, I could live with Unity if GNOME2 ever went |
| 25 |
away, i know i couldn't live with gnome-shell). It seems to have a |
| 26 |
more well thought-out interface, it's getting massive improvements and |
| 27 |
it's really sane and non-obtrusive (compared to gnome-shell, I still |
| 28 |
prefer a "traditional desktop experience"). |
