Dell C.E.O. Promises PC Love Affair but Has a Backup Plan
,----[ Quote ]
| Dell released a laptop last month that uses Linux
| and a minimotherboard to give customers near
| instant access to things like their e-mail and the
| Web. That is to say, people can ignore Windows
| altogether by just using this instant-on system to
| do their daily tasks. In Dellâs own studies, people
| spent 70 percent of their time in this instant-on
| world rather than booting up Windows when they were
| at home.

| application for DVD playback (instead

Dell: Ubuntu Desktop PC Is Back
,----[ Quote ]
| Dellâs U.S. website has finally made good on a
| promise to re-introduce an Ubuntu desktop PC. The
| move should silence critics who were worried that

| and mobile markets. Here are the details.
