Although they look like great laptops, and just what I am looking
for at present, Ebuyer no longer stock them.<br>

My partner has a Dell Inspiron which is a few years old now, it came
preinstalled with Ubuntu, and today it will not boot. Might be just
the battery or the PSU, but if the whole laptop is dead, then she
needs a new one, so I am looking for a new laptop. The idea is to
buy one with Ubuntu pre-installed, or another Linux OS, as then we
are certain that the correct hardware drivers will be available and
loaded.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have any good recommendations, looking in the £300 to
£400 price range? Dell still do Ubuntu laptops but they are way more
expensive than they used to be (the Inspiron only cost £300).<br>
