Latest version of Unity made it impossible to switch to LXDE. Most despicable. Previously if you somehow managed to find Unity terminal window (not easy) and install LXDE, then if you logout, there was a menu where you can uninstall Unity for all eternity. This time I could not figure out what to do, so I installed ready made Lubuntu instead.

"Previously if you somehow managed to find Unity terminal window (not easy)"
Are you saying its difficult to open the terminal in unity? Its on the right click menu on the desktop (common feature across WMs) as well as CTRL-ALT-T, another common shortcut (though some WMs are simpler and use CTRL-T). Its also called "terminal" so searching in the app menu or with the super key is trivial.
I honestly feel like Terminal might be the easiest to open app with the most shortcuts built in by far in any unix WM, so that comment completely confuses me...
