3) I tend to be a fan of the older format of pull down menus, is there
any way to do pull
down menus?

For now you can use forced fallback mode. That will be dropped
eventually (probably for Fedora 19), but there is talk of a gnome-shell
extension to provide something similar. Alternatively should could
switch to another desktop.

4) Is there any way to totally disable the screen saver, not just
setting it to a few hours?

I believe you can turn that off in the start up applications configuration.

5) Saving the screen setup: Is there any way to save the current
configuration of the screen,
shell windows, tool windows, and such at logout, so that they reappear
automatically on login?

I am pretty sure I have seen a setting to save which applications were
running when you logout and restart them at the next login. I am not
sure where exactly it is.

On XFCE, it's the "Automatically save session on logout" option on the "General" tab in the "Start->Settings->Session and Startup" menu.

There used to be something like it on Gnome2, but since I absolutely
refuse to use the horribly mangled and bodged Gnome3 environment (what
the hell were they thinking?), I have no idea where it would be if it
still exists.
