Kit Out A PC For Free!

| What's great about Ubuntu in particular is that it promises to
| remain free -- unlike some rivals that may charge for upgrades.
| Interestingly, Dell has announced that it will be offering Ubuntu
| 7.04 on some of its new computers, although this will be in the
| US only. Here's a video clip explaining how to install Ubuntu.
|
| Alternatives include Freespire and openSuse -- although you may
| find these more "techy" than Ubuntu.

| Microsoft developers need to learn that you shouldn't need gigabytes or
| RAM and of video RAM just for the GUI!
|
| And the public needs to know that Vista is not a product, it's scrap.
| Waste. Trash. Garbage. And a rip-off.
