[ubuntu-in] Newbie. Hello!

Hi Everyone,

I've only just joined the list and have been running Ubuntu on my
desktop for close to six months now and have been most impressed
especially with the new Gutsy update. I'm now looking to buy a laptop
and as I cannot find one with Ubuntu pre-installed I thought I'd ask
the community of they had any thoughts on the two I have shortlisted
and whether there were better options out there.

1. Acer Aspire 4710

2. Lenovo 3000 G400

Also, quick query. Is this list a place to discuss technical questions
related to Ubuntu as well?

Best,

Gautam
