happy ubuntu release day

[Gabriel Wollenburg]

Havign lived with Unity for however many days, I don't recommend
moving not techy people to 11.04. The dock is weird and doesn't act
like you' expect it to, and the menu bar at the top is strange and
annoying. The scrollbars are inconsistent, and the last thing you want
for a non-savvy audience is inconsistent GUI.

I end up fighting the snapping on the windows, too.

In all, it's going to be great by 12.04, but right now, it's pretty
rough around the edges.
