Yes, Canonical, every member of my family that has been subjected to Ubuntu 11.04 has hated it to the point where the kids fight over who gets to use one of the computers still running Ubuntu 10.10. My teenagers were ready to stage a rebellion when I told them I was updating the remaining computers this weekend until I told them that I would also be installing Gnome-Shell as an alternative to Unity so they'd be able to use them pretty much they way they did prior to the "upgrade".
Personally, if I wanted a netbook interface, I would have bought a netbook. I'm beginning the upgrade of my personal system as I write this. When completed, the very first thing I'll be doing is banishing Unity to some dark, desolate corner of my hard drive.
Post Install Update: Seems I won't be fighting with Unity after all. I was informed my hardware wasn't up to snuff for running it and would have to use Ubuntu Classic. If my hardware can't run Unity, I shudder to think of what Canonical has foisted upon netbook users who "upgrade" to 11.04.
