| on, as it sells both notebooks and desktop machines. Other great examples
| include Emperor Linux and Linux Certified, both of which have been doing
| this a lot longer than System76, though only with notebook-based Linux
| systems.

Dude, I'm Getting a Dell...with Linux!
,----[ Quote ]
| Last night, my boyfriend and I customized a Dell Inspiron 530N desktop with
| Ubuntu version 7.04 pre-installed. You may be wondering, why convert to an
| open-source platform? We were tired of Microsoft's security issues. Plus,
| there are still many apps and hardware that aren't compatible with Vista yet,
| not to mention the cheapest Vista edition you can buy is $199.
