I'm really impressed with the changes coming in Gnome-Shell 3.6 especially when it comes to the sys tray. I am however, extremely disappointed in just how much they are stripping out of Nautilus. Seriously the worst part of the update. I'm so on the fence about what to do. I want to keep the new gnome-shell experience but revert to the old nautilus. Alas, this cannot be.
