As I've been retraining my fingers, I am finding the flow much faster. I
switched to an Ubuntu machine last night and found myself repeatedly
trying to do Gnome3~ish things, not being able to, and having to switch
between keyboard and mouse.
It is, I continue to feel, a matter of letting go of your old habits and
letting yourself try a new way of working. When you do, I think you find
that the Gnome3 folks are on to something. :)
Of course, opinions vary.
