You're right, you were complaining about the description on ubuntu.com.

"From the ubuntu.com website: "Our office applications, for example,
are fully compatible with Microsoft Office and have everything you
need to create professional documents."
http://www.ubuntu.com/business/desktop/windows-compatible

Is this referring to LibreOffice? Some other office suite? LibreOffice
certainly is _not_ "fully compatible" with MS Office. It works pretty
good for most formatting on older MSO file formats, but anything
complex shows errors. Not to mention the newest MSO file formats, and
popular essential addons such as Mathtype."

"For all practical purposes, Unity is very limited in the way it can 
be customized/personalized.  The top panel cannot be moved, hidden or 
deleted, there is no way to add panels for say, creating your own 
"launcher" (as I've done in Gnome).  Hitting the super key in Unity and 
typing a few letters is the equivalent of what can be accomplished with 
the Gnome-Do app.  There is a convoluted "menu" system that I'm still 
trying to figure out how to efficiently get around in and the list goes 
on and on."

English isn't my first language, so if you think there's a better term 
for this than complaining, it's fine by me.
