The fix is in 12.04. When you start Unity for the first time, it is pre-
populated with items. This bug was only closed recently because of an
oversight, but it has been fixed for two years already.

Bug description:
  Sorry if this has been told several times, but I need to say it before
  12.04 goes out.

  1- Take a  normal computer user and ask him  to use Unity in 12.04

  2- He understands that the have to hit the Ubuntu Button on Top left
  to launch an application.

  3 - He expects then some links to find the application he's looking
  for ( maybe a bit like in 11.10 )

  4- Instead he found an empty space and don't see the shortcuts at the
  Bottom  that could lead him to categories of apps.

  5 - he just close the lid of the laptop and ask me " install me a
  normal operating system"

  
  Solution : Hitting the Dash should in less than 2 click enable the user to launch the application hes's looking for without typing its name. 

  12.04 will be a disaster without this. Maybe this is being worked on
  for beta2 ?
