Changing the interface is a risky proposition for any software company with an established user base. Microsoft, for example, upset and confused many with the the Ribbon interface in Office 2007; it was supposed to make it easier for users to find hidden features. Canonical, meanwhile, has had its own problems, going with Unity instead of sticking with GNOME.
Referring to Microsoft's Office experience, Shuttleworth said: "Instead of cluttering up the interface ALL the time, let's clear out the chrome and show users just what they want, when they want it." Até parece que a Canonical não está fazendo a mesma coisa com o unity :S -- Mais sobre o Ubuntu em português: http://www.ubuntu-br.org/comece Lista de discussão Ubuntu Brasil Histórico, descadastramento e outras opções: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-br
