You're not required to run the default desktop (Unity) of course.  There are several options out of the box, including the classic desktop and Unity 2D, and there are a wide range of supported derivatives of Ubuntu offering additional desktops, such as KDE (Kubuntu) and Xfce (Xubuntu).

Of course, but I still think the default affects the rate of uptake. I'm not attacking Ubuntu, but I think the uptake rate is relevant to our current discussion.

That said, the multi-monitor issues prevent my updating to 11.04.
