Just had a go with GNOME 3 on a fedora 15 alpha live usb.
It seems to work quite nicely on my x60 thinkpad with integrated graphics.
What I like about it:
1. 'special' button starts up a gnome-do-like usability to start applications
2. The window-snapping to the top and side.
Glaring problems and annoyances:
1. No easy access to 'places'
2. No date shown on date widget at top, and it isn't 'always on top' after clicked
3. Needs a simpler and more obvious way to get to their software centre
4. Application names frequently cut-off in the applications list, requiring you to fire them up to check what they are (e.g. software updates!).
Has anyone else had a go with it, and what to they think?
