Ubuntu MATE Remix 14.10 Beta 2

http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Linux-Distributions/Ubuntu-MATE-Remix-103505.shtml

I have been rained out from doing anything outside today so I found this and tried it out and have it installed on my computer right now and it hasn't given me an error message at all and I've been playing with it for about 4 hours now.
According to what I'm reading this might be an official release from Ubuntu when 14.10 is released. Sounds like the Ubuntu folks are getting the message about Unity and how much it sucks.

Anyway just thought I'd let you all know that it looks good here, working good too.
Kernel 3.16.0-20.27

I like gnome 2 and this is about as close to it as it gets

I liked nothing about it.
I never cared for Mate as an add on but this one seems to be integrated with the system well and seems to be spot on, as far as I'm concerned anyway and this is only beta 2
