I agree, many of the newer interfaces are just way overdone and under 
thought.  I've regressed to XFCE, used to be a KDE guy up until 4.  4 
killed KDE for me.  I use other GUIs for work.  I probably use windows 7 
more than any other OS (please don't stone me, it's for work :-D ). 
While I don't like the default interface, you're still able to strip it 
down to the classic 95 like interface and still use the advanced 
features of the new task/menu bar.  I tell people over and over again, 
I use applications, not operating systems.  Give me a good way to manage 
my apps, a good file manager, and I'm good to go.
