Some of Unity’s features: http://developer.ubuntu.com/resources/technologies/unity/

For those like myself who are interested in Gnome, you could install the “gnome-panel” package to get the option (at login) to choose Ubuntu Classic (more gnome-like)

Just as anything new (whether good or not) alot of people might dislike the new Unity (replacing Gnome) just like I did at first, but I believe (after watching the following video) that Linux (whether Fedora with Gnome 3 or Ubuntu with Unity) is leading the computing experience!!!

P.S.: From 12.04 & on, the LTS releases are 5 years instead of 3 😀

Thanks for reading 🙂
