Installed the beta today.



Anyone like it?

 

I'm waiting for the full version. I made the mistake of running a beta operating system with 9.04. I'll wait until it's been deemed stable.



What is it that you don't like?

 

I wait for stable releases as well. If I had a box just for experimenting I would put it on but I don't.

 

From what I've seen, the new Unity interface, based on Ubuntu Netbook looks pretty cool. I think I may have to get a touchscreen monitor to take full advantage of the new interface. Natty Narwhal is quite a bit different then previous builds because of the controversial Unity interface. One thing I've noticed though, Cannonical has a way with making the operating system work well. When they change something, at first it is a big deal and everyone hates it, but then once you get used to it... It just seems to make more sense. In 10.04, they switched the window controls from right to left. That has an awkward feel at first, but when you read from left to right and top to bottom, the most important controls on the window should be the first thing you see.

 

I've been using Ubuntu 11.04 for a few days now. It seems great. It takes some getting used to....... Still getting used to it. It's a big change from all previous desktop editions.

 

Im downloading it now so I can see how this new interface looks although I don't care for the window controls being on the opposite side.



I prefer and use Fedora and Fedora 15 is supposed to be released on the 24th of this month.

 

I tried Unity a while ago when it was still beta. I used it for about a month and went back to Gnome. I haven't switched yet because I like Gnome too much. I may try it and then install Gnome.
