Thanks for posting that, the, erm.. 'New' theme is awful, looks like Linux
did five years ago.

I know Hoary is not, 'out' yet, but I really do think the guys working on it
need to change the theme before it hits the streets because you don't have
to be a mind reader to know what the reviewers will make of it.

With the aim of updating Ubuntu every six months, at which release is the
aim of having a Linux Desktop that is as easy and config file editing free
as Windows?
