Dell Releases Ubuntu 7.10-Powered PCs
sjvn writes "The official word will be out any minute now, but in the meantime DesktopLinux has learned that Dell will be releasing Ubuntu 7.10 on a laptop and desktop with immediate availability. And, as an extra added bonus, they're tossing in legal DVD-playback capability. In a word: Neat."
Besides the DVD-playback, what is so important about this? Vista machines were available from day one of its release. No major OEMs are still selling Win2K. OEMs will always move on to the next OS offered by MS, Canonical, Ret Hat, Novell, etc. Ubuntu PCs being easier to find on Dell's site would be more newsworthy.
Gee, thanks for assuming to know how I prefer to use my computers better than I do. Excuse me for not preferring a pecker sized monitor like you.
I guess your eyesight is just better than mine. Congratulations.
It never, ever ceases to amaze me how some idiots can't understand that people have different preferences, hence it might actually make sense for companies like Dell to give MORE choices to customers.
But hey, I'm glad you're happy with your laptop. I'm very happy with mine. It has a 17" display. Love it. Wish I could run Linux on it.
In Soviet Russia, I ruled you
