[ubuntu-in] Dell and Ubuntu!

It is futile to argue about something that is out in the open. I admit
that dell is offering support for ubuntu hardy but in those early days,
there was no support available for gutsy. Anyways no point in talking
about the past. Even now, the dell linux wiki comes with a disclaimer
about no technical support being available.

Last but not the least, my dear Onkar, I am running ubuntu hardy on a
Dell Inspiron 1420. And maybe thats one of the reasons why I fell for a
Dell.

My objection is to the fact that all laptop users are being forced to
buy windows vista, and that I think is a major impedance to widespread
adoption of ubuntu, and linux. I went with Dell because they had the
courage to go against the norm.
