Ubuntu: Trusting the Tahr?

So, Ubuntu 14.04 is in the wild; but can we we Trust the Tahr?

It has been 2 years since Ubuntu's last LTS release and alot has changed ever since then. Ubuntu is trying to move into the mobile space, upstart has lost the init wars, Mir is going to be Ubuntu's display server in the future and Wayland is almost here (lets cross all our available fingers for that). There has also been alot of drama around the above mentioned features but what's happening in the Ubuntu desktop land? Lets look into Ubuntu 14.04 ......

An Elementary Elegance !

I am a big fan of complete congruence so that everything fits together into a bigger picture and to be truthful that has been the key to the success that Apple has been riding; linux Desktop environments had not always been on the same train given the availability of different toolkits, design approach and many other variables which gives us users many different choices and also in-congruence.

But the solution maybe elementary, as shown by the latest release (which has been quite some time ago as we wait for Isis) of elementaryOS Luna.
