ubuntu-users Digest, Vol 81, Issue 7

[saqman2060 at gmail.com]

I am trying to find the benefits of unity. The downside, it can take up a  
good portion of system memory. When searching for apps, you can get lost if  
you don't carefully read what you see. I the flip-side, if you know the  
keyboard shortcuts, it makes working with unity much easier and faster.  
Again not for noobies. This new desktop UI, should only be used for  
competent users and developers.
