Why not each and every Laptop vendors are offering Linux OS as an option to their each and every model restricting the users to use the crapy Windows Vista ? The consumer must have an option to select the OS for each model comes from the manufacturer. We have very limited model from Dell/HP which comes with Linux pre-installed, rather they MUST give an option for Linux for EACH AND EVERY model.
I found difficult to configure my NIcs in Ubuntu/Linux to connect to internet using pppoe ADSL router. When I want internet connection I have to use 'sudo pppoeconf' as that config donot store permanently. Whereas see in Windows XP, its too simple for a layman to configure the IP of NICs and DSL connections.
