I'm running 10.04 now, but will be moving to Mint as of natty. I'm worried that Unity is one case of Ubuntu pushing design in the wrong direction for the workstation. It's great for netbooks, once they get the basics like "can add icons to the left menu" sorted. But for my 1680x1050 laptop, where I run multiple terminals side by side and often run VMs, it's not even an option to use a netbook interface. If I have to change the UI, I'd much rather have Gnome Shell than Unity. Or, I was just really, really burned by KDE 4, and have become a bit conservative about major shifts on the desktop.
