desktop is configured the way it is. I've always found it more
useful to have the taskbar on the bottom (which I usually set to
autohide). And then I have the Dock on the left so
it somewhat resembles the Ubuntu launcher (also set to autohide).
Is the Desktop configuration open for discussion? I'd like to
hear other people's thoughts on the best default setup to present
to users.</blockquote>

It is open for discussion, but it's also one of the hardest topics
out there. Everybody has an opinion, and it's most probably
different from others' opinions.<br>
<br>
The right way to approach this issue is to think what's best for the
majority or at least many of our users. While I'm not using the
default panel layout myself, I think it's works pretty well for
many.<br>
