[Nottingham] Dell supplying preloaded Ubuntu PCs... or not

[Paul Tew]

Either:

1) Can't be selling that well in these straitened times or
2) Microsoft applied some pressure

or both. 

I tend to favour the second over the first; the Dell page comparing the
two systems was horrendously biased. It might has well have read - 'Use
Windows if you are normal, use Ubuntu if you are myopic and have a brain
the size of a planet'.
