Subject: Re: Ubuntu Linux losing popularity fast. New Unity interface to blame? | Royal Pingdom
I'm using Ubuntu LTS (10.4) on my workstation. That's due to be upgraded
with 12.4, at which time I'll need to make a decision. I'll evaluate
that version of Unity, but expect I might be going with GUbuntu, or else
go back to Fedora. I really don't want to be upgrading my workstation
every 6 months though.
