> UI changes This, but I'd argue it's not limited to Ubuntu, or even to Linux. For the desktop environment, I've been using Cinnamon with my family, since it's ostensibly most similar in the UI metaphor to Windows. That's luckily been a nonissue. The problem has been Web browsers - looking specifically at Firefox. My mom and my grandmother had pretty big upsets when Firefox released Australis, and Photon knocked my grandmother off the Internet completely (she suffers from dementia and isn't able to comprehend changes in her environment anymore). It doesn't have to be that way. My dad is still using SeaMonkey, and has almost completely avoided this problem - the UI has been largely consistent since the Netscape 4 days.
