I found Unity quite an interesting way to go when Canonical first released it and over time it has only gotten better with each release... if you dont like Unity then Xubuntu sports XFCE, Lubuntu has LDXE (my personal favourite) and Kubuntu has the all fancy KDE so their is an Ubuntu version for everyone...
