I'm sure your complaints are valid.
In support of LinuxMint, I've been running 13 as my main machine for over six
months with very little complain about. The only issue I've found problematic
was a window management issue in Inkscape - which totally could be a Inkscape
issue.
Earlier on during the Mint13 timeframe (into July at least) I couldn't
run it on laptops because something in the wireless networking support
was broken (apparently at the kernel level). Eventually found it would
work if I installed the 3.4.0 kernel instead (Mint13 uses a 3.2.x level
kernel). Eventually later releases of the 3.2.x kernels with Mint13
fixed whatever was broken in WiFi support.
Mint14 seems somewhat slower on my machines. Of course, since I had
done a dist-upgrade to bring them there, that may affect the performance
(was trying to get LVM/LUKS support to work, eventually gave up & just
encrypted the home directories). I may want to re-install someday and
have the system install a kernel specific to the hardware instead of a
generic kernel (I think I need to use LMDE to do that).
