I can When a Ubuntu update completely replaced the Desktop with buggy unity, with out warning or option, the response of Ubuntu developers was "it's open sauce

  It's also common to see "It's open source, fix it yourself."

  actually the first release was flawed, but I still liked unity. it's sad that it was so tangled to ubuntu.

    You miss the point, mostly. The update made a major change in the way the user interface worked. With the new user interface I found I could not easily access my programmes without spending a non trivial amount of time learning it, and there was no way back to the old interface, options fro running both etcetera. Ubunti was tremendously stable for a long time at that point, and I upgraded without hesitation. Not since! As you say the interface was buggy. Dreadfully buggy. It leaked memory badly, was clunky and slow. When I complained on my local Linux users mailing list (as did another member who had the same experience) the Ubuntu developers I knew personally took it as a personal affront. Since I had not paid for it, how dare I complain. They have a point. I do not use Ubuntu any more.
