windows7 dual boot

[Stephen Rees-Carter]

I heard that Mint was going to stay with the classic gnome interface
as default - since they agree with the thinking that it should stay
as-is to make it easy for new people. This might have changed
recently, but I haven't heard anything about it. (which could just be
me not reading the right article).

Gnome-Shell is the name of the interface within Gnome 3 - so as I
understand it, switching to gnome 3 means using gnome-shell.
