[ubuntu-za] New Ubuntu laptop in SA

[Derek Stafford]

Hi Leon,
I use a Proline i7 which came with Windows 7. I installed Ubuntu 
alongside Windows (All easily done with the Ubuntu install CD or 
downloaded Ubuntu iso) and have kept both operating systems up-to-date 
with online upgrades. We converted my wife's Lenovo from Windows to 
Ubuntu and she hasn't used Windows for about 5 years (she finds Ubuntu 
easier to use and maintain).

My point is that finding a laptop with Ubuntu pre-loaded will limit your 
options while installing Ubuntu on any laptop is very easy.

Kind regards
Derek
