Michael Dell Using Ubuntu Linux At Home

Posted by kdawson on from the hmmmm dept.

whoever57 sends us a link from the Dell site noting that Michael Dell is using Ubuntu Linux at home (7.04, Feisty Fawn) on a Precision M90 laptop loaded with Openoffice.org and Evolution. If one were betting on which distro Dell will eventually ship pre-installed, this factoid might be food for thought. Oh, and Micheal Dell's gaming system uses XP Media Center edition.

    At the moment ubuntu.com is very slow, so close to the release time. I wish I could get a link to the right torrent for the release (not the beta). Maybe Mr Dell has a link?

    I don't get why your post was modded as funny.
