Lubuntu has attraction here.  Same Ubuntu packages plus an old-style UI
that's getting quite a bit of attention.  Either that or it's jump ship
for Arch but I'm wary of that increasing the amount of sys. admin. the
machine needs.

WRT HUD, AIUI I end up with a tailored UI, a bit like Firefox's Location
bar where it learns that when I type `news' I mean the BBC News site.
And because it's highly used, even `n' now suffices.  In some ways, it's
like having tailored dynamic hot-key sequences for menu items.  Using
someone else's account could be interesting.  :-)  Or sharing a TV as
that seems to be Canonical's main interest.  Perhaps what we teach it
will be stored in Canonical's cloud for access on other machines.

Cheers, Ralph.
