I have a netbook running Ubuntu. the Ubuntu Software Center is too slow and I like add/remove applications more than I do the Ubuntu Software Center. when I try fedora I like the add/remove applications but how do I get on Ubuntu 12.04?

Try Synaptic Manager.

enter image description here

Which provides a thorough Package installation and Uninstallation option, with Sub-Menus such as Section, Origin, Status, Custom Filters, based on type of package/software.

But i will advise you to give another try to Ubuntu Software centre , you can explore it as here

enter image description here

You can Install and Uninstall quite Easily compared to Synaptic here, you just have to choose the right options as example in the screenshot , just expand them to see it.

Third option would be apt-get to remove and install packages.
