Ubuntu 9.10 on Dell Latitude D820 Laptop
,----[ Quote ]
| All in all, I am very pleased with the
| clean look and speedy performance of Ubuntu
| 9.10 on the Dell D820. Linux has come a
| long way, and now looks totally
| professional, especially on a high
| resolution screen. It certainly feels like
| Iâm using serious computing power, and the
| fact that itâs open source, free, and so
| adaptable â is just inspiring. Thanks to
| the leagues of open source developers out
| there who created an amazing system, which
| in my opinion is clearly superior to
| Windows on the basis of speed, flexibility,
| and cost. Iâd like to hear from others if
| they also have similar opinions on the
| speed issues â and if so â why isnât
| everyone switching to Linux on the basis of
| that metric alone.
