I have a desktop computer in which I have installed the Mandriva 2011, it has a new application menu launcher like Unity, and is called ROSA Rocket launcher. I feel that this a better application launcher than the default KDE launcher.

Ubuntu 11.04 Natty user with Kubuntu Desktop Environment now can install OS X-Lion style takeoff launcher to add to desktop as a full screen app launcher.
This is one of those annoyances I have. I hear so many saying the Desktop is dead. There are so many reasons why it will never die. I read this article that covered a fair amount of reasons why the desktop computer will never die.
There are many more reasons but this a good start.
