Hi Rik,
got it wrong again (looked at mint install).
Ubuntu in all flavours allows multiple desktop install, and use.
To select the desired desktop (on Ubuntu) sign in screen at the top 
right of the screen there will be an icon representing the current 
selected desktop. If you click on it you will get a list of available 
desktops, just click on the one you want, it will be remembered till you 
make a new selection.
