,----[ Quote ]
| Battery life is surprisingly good on this little thing. Iâve been working on 
| it for what must be over two hours now, and Iâm still at 30%. CPU load is 
| something like 10% on average, and memory usage has yet to rise over 200 MB, 
| and thatâs with Firefox open.

| revealed that in a few weeks Dell will offer Linux OS upgrades to Ubuntu
| 9.04. PC World also reports that Finch said Dell is looking into
| manufacturing ARM-based netbooks and "smartbooks". Finally, Finch was said to
| have revealed that "in certain quarters" close to a third of all Dell netbook
| shipments are pre-loaded with Linux.
