Mark, clearly there MUST be enough data here by now, on the Internet in
general, etc, to make a sound decision and back it up with clear and
concise data. Right now this is taking a play right out of ex-president
Bush's playbook... "Stay the course". If we see a "Mission Accomplished"
sigh unveiled before the release, we know the boat is sunk.

I won't request to get any data from you or the UI team as to what
changes (exactly or conceptually) are in mind for the right-hand space,
I've given up on that. I'm trying really hard to not give up on Ubuntu
as I've been a loyal user for years. I'll stick around until the release
and see what transpires; but I'm not going to hack gconf and other
things to try and counter what is done by default for such a major thing
such as the button order and location. I spent way too many years
fighting Microsoft and Windows, I'm just too tired of it all.

I've been working with computers since age 11 in 1978 -  (32 years and
counting now at age 43), and I'm perhaps a bit on the lazy and jaded
side. I'm too used to things the way they are to switch. I'm pretty open
to change, but some things that are and have been the core foundation of
many OSes and GUIs, yeah... I'm not going to change that in myself. I'm
too used to it the way it is and I LIKE it there anyway.
