Re:What is Linux Mint? (Score 1)

As a Ubuntu fan and Mac user I wanted to like Unity. Personally I find the UI often misses the point. Consider the unified menu bar - the menus aren't shown until you mouse-over them. How are you supposed to move the mouse toward a menu that you can't see? Strangely when the menu is not shown the space where it would have been is left empty. For instance in this screenshot: http://cdn.arstechnica.net//wp-content/uploads/2012/05/ubuntu1204.png the menu will appear near the top left, to the right of the "Firefox Web Browser" text. Personally I don't think the quality of the user experience is anywhere near as good as Mac.
