Maybe - but XFCE is harder (for newbies) I think and yes I do use both (I use
XFCE on Ubuntu Studio). The C7 is plenty fast enough to run Unity and I use the
C7 with Unity on a daily basis (in work :) ). It would be fairly easy to set up
some [.desktop] shellscripts for users to add XFCE or KDE if they wanted a
different desktop but I think Unity is fine for new users.
This is not about desktops (particularly) but about having a mainstream distro
(not Linpus, Lnspire or some other marginal distro that laptop manufacturers
seem to use when they mean 'preload Linux'). It is about giving users a great
first Linux experience.

Most Linux users (including newbies) have come from a Windows environment, some
from Apple MACs. I came from Windows and had minimal trouble adjusting to KDE
(SuSE), then Gnome (Ubuntu). Unity is atrocious, so is Windows 8. I can
understand why MS wants to keep changing, but Ubuntu?
Is _anyone_ still doing serious work on computers anymore?[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
