At
Linux.com, Joe Brockmeier reviews GNOME 3.4 running on Fedora 17 alpha:
"So the big question for GNOME 3.4 is... are we there yet? Different
people will define 'there' differently, but I define 'there' as 'a
welcome desktop environment for users who liked and used GNOME 2.x.'
I think the answer is yes, but only with a bit of tweaking. If choosing
a desktop for myself, I'd probably opt for the Cinnamon fork of GNOME
3.x for now. But I wouldn't be hesitant to put GNOME 3.4 on a desktop
for a friend or family member at this point."
