3 months with Vector Linux 5.8 SOHO
,----[ Quote ]
| Vector is now my OS of choice on the machine in question, and who knows, if I
| didn’t still have to do a bit of VB development, it could well replace XP on
| my main work laptop as well.
|
| Mind you... I could always build an XP virtual machine...

Unboxing My Dell Inspiron with Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| Last Wednesday, the FedEx guy arrived with my new Dell Inspiron 530 desktop.
| Still in my pajamas, I rushed to the door to greet him, gave him a
| quick "thank-you", and rushed back up the stairs to begin unboxing.

Will HP Follow Dell With Ubuntu Linux PCs?
,----[ Quote ]
| Initially, I was skeptical about Dell's decision to sell selected consumer
| PCs with Ubuntu Linux pre-installed.
|
| But after a few days of testing, I'm a skeptic no more. And I'm not alone.
| Dell insiders tell me that the Ubuntu PCs, introduced in late May, are
| selling well -- though they decline to share exact sales figures with
| me.
|
| [...]
|
| Sources close to HP tell me the company hope to offer PCs with Ubuntu Linux
| pre-installed in a few months--or perhaps even a few weeks...
