Topics examined include office suites, ebook readers, editors, music and media player, sound configuration, Web browsers, image management, mail clients, VoIP, instant messengers, and microblogging.

Additional desktops are reviewed such as XFCE, LXDE, and Sugar (OLPC). Administration topics cover policykit-1 authorization, superuser access, the new accounts dialog user management tool, backups, software installation and updates, repositories, Network Manager (wired and wireless connections), firewalls, Windows network access (Samba), and printing (local and remote).
