Hi,<br><br>Its time to upgrade my hardware and am thinking about a laptop with Linux already installed. Anyone have any recommendations?<br><br>Dell are selling laptops with Ubuntu pre-installed at a reasonable price. Has anyone had any experience with these? Also any other good deals on pretty high end laptops with Linux pre-installed or a recommendation of a Laptop that can easily be swapped over to Linux with the minimum of fuss (i.e all its components are supported correctly) would be useful.<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Norm<br><BR><BR><DIV><FONT face=system size=1><BR><FONT face="comic sans ms">-----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- <BR>Version: 3.1 <BR>GCS d? s:+ a+ C++ UL++ P+ L+++ E W+ N+++ o-- K- w <BR>O- M V PS PE+++ Y PGP++ t+ 5 X++ R* tv+ b++ DI++ D+ <BR>G e++ h-- r+++ z* <BR>------END GEEK CODE BLOCK</FONT></FONT>------</DIV><p>
