I just bought a Dell / Ubuntu laptop. Inspiron 1420, Intel Core 2 Duo T7300, 2.0GHz, 800Mhz, 4M L2 Cache. I have never had a dell and it has not arrived yet so I can't say anything much about it. With tax I'm in WA, it was slightly over a grand. I hope it is better than the Toshiba it is going to replace.
