Mit Unity scheint man nicht so ganz glücklich zu sein:
"Unity represents a huge paradigm shift in work flow, usability, and user experience. Stability is also another realistic consideration as Unity is a new technology. Ultimately, the outcome was appreciable concern regarding how Unity would affect the typical Ubuntu Studio user’s work flow. The consensus within the team is that Unity was not an optimal choice for Ubuntu Studio at this time."
