Dell is serious about Ubuntu: Launches first consumer Linux PCs
,----[ Quote ]
| There is no denying that Linux recently has gained traction in the consumer
| space and Microsoft may have to look a little more seriously at competing
| with Linux distributions on different levels. Most recently, for example,
| Intel has basically thrown out Windows Vista as the dominant platform for its
| Atom Centrino MID platform, recommending and showcasing MIDs generally with
| Ubuntu as the operating system.
