It's not a terrible bug by any means but I guess it's just a matter of 
time before Snatch the Clown calls on the world to boycott GNU/Linux 
entirely as a result of it. It just forces me to eject media the OS X 
way which is not my preferred method but whatever. Other than that 
though, I can't help but notice that I enjoy using my computer a lot 
more with Ubuntu installed than I did with Windows 7. This is a purely 
subjective thing but I just love Unity.
