Incadude Wrote:The story sounds to be set up. I mean Ubuntu is great but its not a default OS on Dell computers. She must have asked for Ubuntu when she ordered the laptop. If nothing worked with it she should have demanded a windows OS. Her getting persuaded to use ubuntu by a dell employee just sound too fishy. The story seems too fake and seems to be a creation of microsoft. Ubuntu sure is getting a bad reputation from this. When actually its a very great OS that could actually compete with windows. I just hate how this story will make people turn away from a great free OS, that isn't anything like the news company is making it look like.

Ubuntu FTW!!!

Only laptop on Dell site with Ubuntu, and its not 1,100.
So what's so special about ubuntu? I had it for a while and it just seemed like another OS to me...
