Essentially, every time I see a post like this I stop reading as soon
as it
tries to argue that something is wrong because it's like
Windows. Reductio ad
Gates is not a valid demonstration that
something
is undesireable and
successive attempts at doing it commonly
vary
between 'this is obscure', 'this
is
oversimplified', 'this isn't
configurable to my liking' and 'I don't like
it'. All of those on
their own might be good reasons to object to a design or
feature and
might be points worth discussing, but lots of people seem to thing
that the Linux community is about Not Being Windows and that if you
can
equate something you don't like to Windows in some way then you've
proved that
it's undesireable. This is simply not true.

For sure, Gnome 3 is far from Windows.
I suggest an easy test: install a
brand new Fedora 15 and let a Windows user start to use it (someone who never
saw a Linux system), report his experience
