Well, I will definetely upgrade to GNOME 3 and give it a chance for at least two, three weeks. If I'm not satisfied, I can still switch to XFCE.

I really like GNOMEs idea of not having too many choices, buttons etc. since I'm working as a full-time system administrator for my mother (in parallel to my paid job, of course). We computer people don't have a clue how clueless people can misuse GUIs! Every removed choice or button is good.

However, I have my own preferences, which I can set in GNOME 2 via gconf, and I hope this choice is not taken away in GNOME 3. E.g. I like "focus follows pointer" and I hate "focus auto-raise", such things, that most people don't want.
