I'm with you on Unity. Didn't like it before 12.04 but HUD has sold me. Sure I would like to configure the desktop a little more, but I am sure that will come with later releases. I think Unity wins as a Desktop/Tablet hybrid where Win8 fails.

At least you only need to punch the beat into the machine once...

I recently ditched m$ on my home laptop and installed ubuntu studio 9.04 - which sucked 'cause the real time kernel kept crashing. So after some research, I decided to install the 9.10 beta to see if it was any better. My computer has never run better!! 9.10 is an awesome release, and I have not seen any of the issues others are having. Maybe its a clean install vs. upgrade thing. That said - if anyone knows how to get patchage to recognise the audio port of my NI Audio 8 DJ usb soundcard - I will be forever grateful (patchage recognises the midi ports!)
