    Of course there are ubuntu distros dedicated to various flavours of
    desktops.<br>
    <br>
    Not to start a flame war, but after I got used to the workflow of
    Unity, I admit I like it.  My apps are all available with a few key
    strokes and Unity tweak tool lets me optimize many things like
    window pan etc.  Although I admit I spend most of my day in terminal
    or eclipse.<br>

                          <div>Hi Everybodeee..<br>
                             </div>
                          Oh-kay this is a open invitation to one and
                          all interested in attending the Toronto Ubuntu
                          Hour. This is the first time I am organizing
                          this so please be gentle as it is very much a
                          learning process for me.<br>
                           </div>
                        I was thinking either the coming week-end ( 7th
                        Sat or 8th Sun ) or the next week-end. Location
                        has tenatively been decided on the Coffee Time
                        at Lansdowne and Bloor will be sending
                        directions once folks confirm attendance. The
                        location is of course open to discussion and
                        change depending on convenience for other to
                        access.
                        <div>
                          <div>
                            <div> </div>

                              thoughts on the dates and  anything else
                              that would make this event a success.</div>
                            <div> </div>
                            <div>Show some solidarity people. Let's Meet
                              + greet + eat and talk Ubuntu and after we
                              can go have beer ? If I can convince "one"
                              other person to explore Ubutnu as a
                              alternative operating system I will be a
                              happy cookie !</div>
                            <div><br>
                              You can't tell me in a city of 9 million
                              people ( including the GTA ) that "I" am
                              the only one single person using Linux
