Started with Ubuntu, but since they started using Unity as the default DE, I’ve bounced around Pinguy, UE, Regal and Mint. With Mint 12 and the Cinnamon DE, I found the perfect balance of functionality and usability. Docky and Cairo Dock coexist beautifully; I have many options for menus. What more could you want?

Was my first DE as soon as I figure out how to bounce out of Unity (although to be honest, Unity isn’t total trash either)

I know gnome shell has not been received well but I would recommend that everyone try it.  Give a week or so.  I tried it out last year thinking it was going to be as bad as unity, but I was surprised to discover it was something I enjoyed using.

So, hurray Mint, hurray Gnome Shell!
