Not that it matters, and no one is paying me, here's why I'm using
Gnome Shell on Fedora 18, after rejecting it previously:
1. It's fast and reliable.
2. I like the way it looks.
I'll stop here, because many complaints about how it works, mine too,
are a "look" thing (appearance, *and* process of you using it). The
main gripe, and mine too, would be that we used Gnome because it worked
in the way that we wanted to use the computer. Now it doesn't.
I take issue with the first point, as a separate thing. It has been
buggy and CPU intensive, more so than Gnome 2. You, now, need a much
faster computer and better graphics card, just for the basic user
interface that everything else will run on, never mind applications.
I really disagree with buggy and cpu intensive.
My homebuilt pc is at least 3-4 years old with 2g memory and runs Fedora
18 very well, is fast, reliable and Iike the way it looks and works.
I'm not using Nvidia which helps a lot, I think.
My 6-7+year old Dell laptop runs Fedora 18 very well and gives more
battery life than Ubuntu ever did.
Both are faster than Apple machines and Windows 7 which my friends use.
No complaints from me .
