I have upgraded my oS 11.4 32-bit installation of Gnome to Gnome #3 and been playing around with it for a day. I like it, and it has potential. It is not yet perfect but if one overlooks the present warts it is still usable in a *productive* environment. I have, since I first installed XP, in them dim, wasted-forever, years, tried to configure my desktop to be "clean" ie, just a plain, clean looking, with nothing on it, desktop with just a wallpaper (but preferably, if possible, wallpaper*s*) of my choice. Gnome #3 gives this to me without any effort on my part. My compliments to the Gnome #3 devs for their effort! There are at least a couple of questions I would like to have answered but I will leave these for now because I can live with the 'annoyances' - unless they will continue into the future for ever more and not get attended to. To be very honest, it is a toss-up at the moment between KDE 4.6.(3) and Gnome #3 but unless I have some VERY bad days over the next weeks then I feel at the that Gnome #3 is quite pleasant to use.
