When I learned what Gnome 3 was going to be like, I started looking for 
a different DE and ended up with Xfce.  One of the minor things I like 
about it is that you can configure it so that a right-click anywhere on 
the desktop brings up your main menu; no need to go to the corner of the 
panel.  After a year working with Unity, my sister had me migrate her 
from Ubuntu to Xubuntu.  If nothing else, try a LiveUSB with the Xfce 
spin; you may be pleasantly surprised because it's much less of a 
resource hog than either Gnome or KDE without being minimalist.
