Quite like it, although I really hope they aren't going to move the window control widgets to the left side of each title bar.
They will probably be configurable, although I don't know why I would think that, since very little else in Gnome is.
Why would you want to do that?
It makes the Ubuntu desktop look more like OS X and less like Windows, which may create the impression among mainstream users that Ubuntu is a premium brand. (They may have said as much on the branding page, but I didn't read it-- I can't stand that sort of thing. The pictures are nice :)
