Re: [PLUG] Dell really gets Linux - at last


I bought a Latitude D630N from them this year and its been awesome. Perhaps they didn't get Linux in the past, but they seem to have stepped up their game considerably since then.

On the contrary, I have had a bad experience trying to buy a Linux
laptop from Dell that I wrote about on this list a couple of years
ago.  They just don't get Linux.  So, I'm not surprised that they
botch their Linux message.

At least they're good for a laugh, even if they aren't any good for a
Linux laptop!
