I'm considering to change from Ubuntu to Xubuntu since I can't stand Unity, and Xubuntu seems a lot faster (I'm currently running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, but I've tried Unity on other machines, and it is just not my cup of cake).
Am I asking for trouble if I'd like to do this upgrade? Would it be smarter to wipe the hdd? I've got a lot of specialised programmes installed that takes a while to reinstall.
If I go through with this, would it be better to do
1. Ubuntu 10.04 -> Ubuntu 12.04 -> Xubuntu 12.04
or
2. Ubuntu 10.04 -> Xubuntu 10.04 -> Xubuntu 12.04
?
In any case, I will wait for the release in April, I will not run alpha versions... I'm just preparing my mind for this upgrade.
