And I just thought I ought to say so. Welcome to the fold. :) I was extremely skeptical. But GNOME has done right by me for years, and the applications are first-rate, so I decided I'd give it a try.... and it discovered the same thing as you. Most notably I couldn't imagine a desktop without a task-bar. But I've been taskbar-less for a long time now. I don't miss it at all; I discovered I just don't need one. <http://www.whitemiceconsulting.com/2011/05/fortnight-with-gnome3.html> > Although we shall see how I feel when our application toolbars disappear > up into the main panel ...
