Dell & Ubuntu's mighty Mini 9
,----[ Quote ]
| I have a few quibbles, but that's really all they are. For example, this
| Ubuntu comes with OpenOffice 2.4, instead of the newer and faster OpenOffice
| 3.0. I can live with that though. It's still more than fast enough on this
| portable powerhouse.
|
| Oh and the best part? All of this computing goodness came to me with a $289
| price-tag. Now, this, this is my kind of computer.

| Dell chalks up its success with Linux to the direct sales model, where it can
| coach customers on the phone about what system may suit them best.

| But besides patting itself on the back for excellent customer service, Dell
| is sending a pretty clear signal to Microsoft that it intends to continue
| with Linux netbooks. Dell makes more profit on the Linux systems.
