Does anyone know why Dell Australia wasn't offering Ubuntu with their built-to-order boxes like their American counterparts? It puzzled me to no end. < tangent> And why can't I buy a computer with nothing but a DOS installed??</ tangent><br>

Today I came across this page<br> <a href="http://www.pioneercomputers.com.au/products/configure.asp?c1=3&c2=13&id=2484">http://www.pioneercomputers.com.au/products/configure.asp?c1=3&c2=13&id=2484</a><br>
<br> there you can pre order a notebook with the upcoming Centrino 2<br> chipset and quote "Ubuntu Linux OS Pre-loaded"<br> <br> Yes I've read the line below which says: "...Some drivers may be coming soon"<br>
<br> I think this is a good start for a Australian company.<br> How far is Dell with their Ubuntu shipping in AU?<br> <br><br> --<br> ubuntu-au mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com</a><br>
