I've been aggressively looking for a new OS to migrate to because I desperately want to get off the OSX before it becomes iOS. I have been trying different Linux Distros in the past few months and because I had used Ubuntu before I didn't try it till the very end. I wish I had tried it first, and I have to credit Unity for making me me pick Ubuntu. I think Unity is a really good change, and while it's new and might not be working properly for everyone, I say it's a step in the right direction. It's the first time I've used a Linux GUI that is both usable and not a poor man's windows/osx clone. I think it's more organized and the location of things make more sense. I stopped using menu trees when Quicksilver/Do came into existence, and stopped using scrollbars when mice started coming out with scroll wheels so some of the criticism people have don't apply the way I use GUIs. I just hope Canonical doesn't get discouraged by the haters and keeps developing and making improvements to Unity. I'd hate to see it go. Hermiquin.

Who cares about their password security on Gawker's sites and other like them. I personally use the crappiest password I can remember for stuff like that. Just keep that passwrd away from you email and bank account. If you feel the need to have an ultra secure random 25 character password to protect your Paris Hilton article clippings security is the least of your problems. On the other hand if you use your gawker password for your bank account also security is the least of your problems.

Facilitated communication can't be taken for real communication, in peer reviews it's usually discredited because the person that is really communicating is the "facilitator".
