Hindsight is 20/20 and it's important to understand the situation that led up to Ubuntu 11.04. It is also important to keep in mind that the multi-touch capabilities of Unity, global menu fail and all, are actually out-pacing the availability of compatible hardware, which puts Unity at the forefront of potential PC-style slate computing.
