I think the other distros will catch on -- Mint is already there. Lord knows I gave
Gnome 3 a chance...I used it for a week, but just couldn't get past the interface issues.
Frankly, it makes sense now that Fedora's backing MATE. Red Hat would never be able
to deploy Gnome 3 on an enterprise-level scale; it's just too non-intuitive and Unity is too
tablet-ish. Thank you, Desktop Gods!
