Hi Adam, We are `mostly harmless'. Everyone will be happy if you don't top post. Lame questions are fine but please try Googleing first.

And I'm in complete agreement with Mick, Unity sucks, Gnome 3 is no better so I'm seriously looking for non-kde and non-minty alternatives. Poss Lubuntu or Xubuntu? Shame because I've been with Ububtu since Warty and I'm loath to change now. But since I've been forced away from a usable Gnome interface...

I've used xubuntu for several years now and it seems to keep on going without drastic changes.
