"Something new" comin in 10.10, OOO!

There's been a lot of criticisims about that style looking toomuch like Mac OS. Mark ShuttleWorth responded to those criticisms sayinghe got "something new" plannedfor 10.10.He says that the reason he put the button on the left isbecause he will be using the right side for "something new", interesting ehhh....So I ask youLinuxers, What do you think…See More
