My sentiments exactly. Although Unity goes pretty far to provide keybindings for most actions by default (and compiz can provide whatever else you may want), I just couldn't get it working in a way I like. I did an `apt-get install gnome-shell`, and I've been using that since.

This didn't take me any absurd amount of time, and didn't result in any angry blog posts. I could have just as easily dropped in another distro, but I do like the default font rendering on Ubuntu, which takes some work to get right in others like Fedora.
