Features
> Unity7 has elements such as the heads-up display (HUD) and the Global Menu, helping with your productivity.
> It has a modern-looking user interface, but with an elegant, traditional workflow.
Why you should upgrade from 16.04
> Ubuntu 16.04 is severely outdated, with several security holes that can be (and are being) exploited in the wild.
> The version of Unity7 Ubuntu Unity ships is nearly identical to that in 16.04, but with a whole bunch of functional improvements and is actively developed.
