Re: Ubuntu 4.10 (2004) VS Ubuntu 12.10 (2012)
There's a couple of things that can be pointed out.
1. What's referred to as the original layout, didn't require two panels. One could easily delete one of the panels and gain back landscape. At least, for as long as I've used Ubuntu (7.04).
2. Individual opinion is only relevant to said individual. With all the available Linux options, why complain about Unity or any DE. Try Xubuntu (it's still configurable) and I wonder how mum would enjoy that?
Complaining here does little to inform the devs of one's opinion. Thus, the only feedback one will receive here is likely to be other Ubuntu (or other Linux flavor) users. The majority of which will probably support the product. If one's truly concerned and dissatisfied, I suggest they notify the Canonical devs directly. Anything here will probably not be viewed by said devs, as the forums don't regularly share information with them and to my knowledge - historically they haven't spend much time here.
Just my $0.02
