Spread improvements, HighDPI support, new decorations, and the usual bug-fixes are also making it into the new LTS release. Is Unity starting to grow up?"

Cinnamon is running just fine for me in 13.10. Why would anyone use Unity?

Because some of us actually do like Unity, the cleanness, and the ease of getting to applications. I'm currently using Xubuntu (as my laptop is way too slow to run anything like Unity), and I can't believe how much nicer Unity is. It takes me maybe half a second to find a commonly used application in Unity; anything less commonly used is a two button press (alt shift, as I don't have a meta key on my keyboard of choice), type in the name, press enter. On XFCE, I have to click a button, find the correct menu, and then click the correct application.

I understand the meaning of all those words separately, but this phrase is complete gibberish. ;-)
