  1. well, you may choose to install xubuntu: http://www.xubuntu.org/ or if you have ubuntu with unity already installed, you can install the xfce desktop by: 

    sudo apt-get install xfce4

    OR

    you install gnome 3 by:

    sudo apt-get install gnome-shell

    When installed, you may choose it in the login screen (gnome classic is what you mean). Thats it.

    sudo apt-get install gnome-panel

    It's a little different than the Gnome Panel of 10.10 but it looks like.
