I am going through similar issues with Ubuntu 11.04. Libreoffice is nice, but Unity isn't doing it for me on the Ubuntu end. I want to try Gnome 3 to see how it is, but my only other machine that I have that might support that is a Macbook Pro. Unfortunately, Virtualbox doesn't seem to have what it takes to support Gnome3. A good option is to get Gnome 3 on Ubuntu 11.04. My limited research seems to head in the million-headaches-to-suffer-through direction. There is too much other work to be done right now for that. It'll be far easier to swap in a new hard drive in the new Toshiba and install Fedora, despite my dislike for RPM. Does still have the 10 CDs or 2 DVDs download? Since when did things become so....complicated? My grandfather would probably start giving his speech about too many cooks in the kitchen right about now.<br>

<p>Upgrading laptop to fedora 15 and noticed that openoffice was replaced with libreoffice. Oracle really pissed off a lot of people.<br>
Also I actually read the fedora docs and realized that gnome3 effectively requires a two handed user. The active spot to launch applications requires both alt key and left mouse simultaneously to use. What was gnome devel thinking?</p>
