By contrast, I am struggling to get rid of this horrible Unity thing and get Gnome Shell.
Ubuntu is pulling a Microsoft by using its clout to push a product and kill another; they can make Unity default, but they've actively removed Gnome Shell to the tune of ...well the PPAs all say "THIS CAN BREAK YOUR SYSTEM!!!" Scariness. So the lesson here is that rather than see Ubuntu users go to Gnome Shell, they're making them leave, which is higher impedence and so the number of users who will migrate off Ubuntu is a subset of those who would instal Gnome Shell. Another subset is people like me who now have 80% of the desktop environment coming out of a PPA. The Gnome developers are also upset at Canonical. No idea why.

I was previously running Fedora and openSUSE because I was angry with the previous state of Ubuntu. Yet the 11.04 release has made me return. Well done to all the developers and all others involved to make such an awesome release possible.
