That's strange.

I had 11.04 on an old, battered machine (Athlon 2500+, 768 MB RAM, Radeon 9600) for about a week and it worked OK. Scratch that, I had no performance issues at all. The only reason I installed xubuntu on it was that after I'd disabled Zeitgeist (a passive logger that tracks everything you do, every site you visit, and your online communication) the dash went empty.

Unity looks great, but I don't like that there's no easy way to configure it. I would surely like to move the launcher to the bottom and make it auto-hide automatically even on a desktop with no running apps.

I know they are still experimenting, but I think they've confused innovation with copying tablet specific features. Take as an example the position of the launcher. It's perfect if you're working on a tablet with touch screen, but on desktop its position is a bit strange. Maybe that's just my preference, but the "natural" position for it on desktop would be the bottom of the screen.

Do you have a reason for the bottom being the 'natural' position that isn't 'Apple puts it there by default'?

I don't know exactly why, but my mouse tends to be in the lower right corner of the screen most of the time. Considering that, launching an app from the bottom of the screen involves less work for me. I'm not sure if that's true for the rest of the people or it is just my thing.

Elementary OS Jupiter might seem more 'natural' until Unity configuration is sorted
