On a side note, my one wish is that the nVidia drivers were on the same level in linux. I'd love to be able to run 12.04 on my HTPC and bitstream DTS-MA and Dolby True HD. Sounds like XBMC audioengine is being integrated into the mainstream release.
Unity on my laptop has been useful. Unity on a desktop is oversimplified and I switched back to gnome for the time being. Unity hasn't exactly been received with open arms by the community. Curious to see what the next year or two will bring.

Installing NVidia drivers is a lot easier than it used to be, thats for sure. However, there is still usually "some" work that has to take place in order to get the drivers installed and working properly. I wouldn't wish that on a non-technical person.
