I have an earnest question for certain people who dislike Unity: Why are you switching distros entirely? I'd understand if Unity was the only available option, but GNOME2 still works fine, GNOME3's in a PPA, and there's other DEs that are more-or-less officially supported (KDE, XFCE, LXDE).

Exactly. I've been using Ubuntu for the past 2 years without ever logging into a Gnome session. The package management, the drivers, the sane defaults are all worth it even if you disagree with all their design decisions. What doesn't work in the repos get fixed really fast. I am typing this from a Natty laptop running Awesome WM and I never have to see Unity if I don't want to.
