KDE may be prettier (beauty is in the eye of the beholder, after all), but sadly sability sucks. I have no interest in solving 2-3 crashes a day just to have prettier desktop. Gnome has never let me down.

About gnome-tweak-tool being provided in System Settings- Advanced Settings (the user-facing name) has many settings within itself. This is somewhat similar to how the ‘Details’ panel has a few options, but I don’t think it should be encouraged. I think it’s fine to have a separate utility for advanced changes, but I wish the Advanced Settings had a pleasant, coherent layout like the System Settings utility. It could use some prettying up if it’s going to be an official GNOME package.

KDE 4.0 was much more beautiful and even more functional than that. Even my Terminal is prettier than that. I am wondering if the Gnomes will ever learn to make a Desktop :(

Sorry looks no different than when it first came out. Looks like paint drying at best.

Now you have two places to look for menus for each application. In the gnome shell or in the application itself. They should make up their minds. Eitther all menus application menus in the shell, a la MacOS-X, or none at all. Personally I would prefer it the MacOS-X way, to make the most of Fitts law. This is a total usability mess.

It seems like all your concerns can be solved by the installation of a more elegant Gnome Shell + GTK3 theme that will replace the defaults. You can do this easily and using a GUI way through the “Advanced Settings” tool

It keeps looking like they are aiming their desktop to kids and old people with big icons, ridiculously simple names and no tweaking allowed (unless you want to put hands in gconf, someone says…)
This can be a reasonable approach, but they could have changed the name of the project, as this is getting further and further from the gnome 2.X Desktop.
I personally don’t like it and switched to xfce, which will be perfect (I hope) as soon as they switch to gtk 3.

Thanks for the update and cheers!

There are a software that works in ubuntu and Sabayon called Multisystem and other called yumi for MS WOS that allow you to put several ISO images to boot from your pendrive.

If you know how to edit grub, you can copy paste, and – change some directory – the USB grub entries and put the ISOs at your / boot directory to have this Live ISO images available from your own HDD

By enabling Rawhide. Obviously this will make your box unstable even unbootable, but you can try it on VBox.

If you carefully read our post for Gnome Software Center we said it will come in the next two releases (if). Also you can read our Sticky post about the mockups we do here.
