I'm the BOFH and they're merely migrated MS Windows users. Choice? No.
It's a "working system that is simple" that they get. End of story. I'm
not going to rant on about anything else, being an IT consultant since

Gnome3 will be installed and stripped/ripped of GnomeShell, Unity will
*NOT* be used or even considered for clients. At least it's possible to
