"That said, I did find this new Fedora with GNOME to be usable. I have
to say I didn’t find the last version to be at all useful. Still, I’m
left wondering why Fedora and GNOME first went in such a mis-guided
direction in the first place. It’s great that Fedora and GNOME are
much better than they were, but they’re still not for me, anyway, as
useful as the last Fedora with GNOME 2.x was. I can see that Fedora is
better, but I’m going to be sticking with Linux Mint, Ubuntu, and
openSUSE for my daily desktop use."

To tell you the truth, I don't understand what people see of too bad
in Gnome 3.X. I confess that I had some difficult at the beginning,
but after some days, I loved it! Gnome 3 is the redefinition of the
concept of desktop enviroment. Maybe people be just afraid of the
change...
