Hi @eschwartz
lasiness?! not have to do with new things (if that's not required )
from a point of view you're right (so i did till 2010) -- yes the new interface was the reason initially i'm an old guy afterall
-- but i decided to follow the principle "KISS and not change it if not broken and if can do your work" i can't pretend others understand that point but can assure you till now i had no problems (OS security updates are not missing)
i guess the reason to change is if you want an app you haven't and is extremely difficult to workaround the OS to do it

Are you avoiding the horrifically ugly and anti-useful Unity desktop? If so, switch to Cinnamon and Linux Mint!
That is what I... would've done, if I hadn't gone all the way to Arch Linux, anyway.

yeah i hear about Cinnamon and ways to force Gnome3 show as Gnome2 ecc ; Regard FLOSS Os's out there nowadays exist zillions of Linux distros it's a bit a caotic enviroment i prefer BSD's for that reason
