Ubuntu 11.04 disable global menu (Mac like menu)

I have been running Ubuntu 11.04 in VirtualBox and I now a fan of the new global menu. I am glad Mac people like it and that Ubuntu can look like that. I just think it should not be forced on us all. Now to get off me soapbox. If like me, you want to disable the global meun run

sudo apt-get remove indicator-appmenu appmenu-gtk

and then you can remove the gnome ubuntu luncher and add back the main menu luncher. I hope before the finally release they make they an option.

I found this info on some other blog, but it was hard to find. Sorry I lost the link.
