I've been using MATE on my newest box. It's a gnome2 fork focused on preserving the old-way of doing things. http://mate-desktop.org/ http://mate-desktop.org/ I've only been using it for 30 hours, but so far it's working quite well and isn't getting in my way.

I had eagerly tried MATE for a while now. Only when I tried it last night (1.4) did it work well. I am a happy camper and feel much more at home with GNOME 2.

So is this basically Unity 2D by any chance?

  No, Unity2D was still Unity rendered without 3D. MATE is older Gnome2.
