Dell To Finally Offer Linux

Dell has heard you and we will expand our Linux support beyond our existing servers and Precision workstation line. Our first step in this effort is offering Linux pre-installed on select desktop and notebook systems. We will provide an update in the coming weeks that includes detailed information on which systems we will offer, our testing and certification efforts, and the Linux distribution(s) that will be available. The countdown begins today.

If there was an appropriate word right about now, it would be, “Finally!”. Ubuntu and openSUSE will probably be the first supported distros just given the fact that they are so popular. I’m curious to see how great their Linux support will be though, especially regarding their drivers. At least we’ve gotten this far!
