<br>> Ubuntu Feisty pre-installed.<br>><br>> The spec is as follows:<br>><br>> Inspiron 6400 N-Series Dual Core Processor T2080 (1.73 GHz 533 MHz FSB 1<br>> MB L2 cache)<br>> Wide Sreen 15.4" WXGA (1280x800) Display with TrueLife

<br>> doesn't have bluetooth built in.<br>><br>> The battery life is excellent (I'm off to swindon from Kent by coach<br>> today and the battery should last me the whole 6 hours of coach travel<br>> including the 1hr 10m stopover at Victoria today and on Sunday night on
<br>> my way home!). It still amazes me that the battery can be showing as<br>> 10% when there's 2hrs left!<br>><br>> Hope this is of some help,<br>><br>> Matt.<br>><br>><br><br>That's a great battery life. I'm lucky if I get 3 hours on my Dell laptop.
<br><br>Rob<br><br>The only thing that is putting me off the dell Ubuntu laptops is the processor, if they upgrade it to core 2 duo then my mind would be made up.I ain't very sure about the pentium dual-core.</blockquote>
