    The side dock is a taskbar except on the left hand side. Big whoop. Top panel is basically the system tray as seen on Windows, with all functionality fairly obvious just by looking at it, and there is infact a start button where you can type in the program name you’re looking for, just like most people do in Windows. Not exactly MacOS levels of relearning.

    You clearly haven’t worked in IT. I was on the helpdesk back when we upgraded to Windows 8, and users lost their shit at not having a Start Button. We had to roll them back to Windows 7 and wait until Windows 8.1 when MS re-introduced the Start Button. Newbie users don’t like it when things change around on an existing system. It’s a different story however if it’s a completely different device, I guess different device == different mindset. But you replace Windows on a PC with Ubuntu, and sparks will fly.

      The people that shat themselves over Windows 8 probably aren’t the kind of people to experiment with a new OS.
