subject: Trying out desktops

I've been playing with Mint and ElementaryOS for my desktop, a slightly 
older Thinkpad laptop (T410 with integrated graphics and an i7 CPU)

Elementary is intruiging - it's a beautiful UI, clean, with a transparent 
status bar at the top and a dock by default on the bottom. their *own* apps, 
without any branding, and different, slightly unintuitive window controls 
coming from Windows.

I'm going to play with it for a while, not sure if I like the seamlessness 
of Elementary or the more traditional hierarchical start menu in Mint. Iget 
the feeling that I'll like Elementary and stick with it once I get used to 
the changes.
