| Dell unveils four consumer systems featuring Ubuntu 7.10, plus DVD playback capability |
| |
|
Dell unveiled four consumer systems — the XPS M1330n, Inspiron 1420n and Inspiron- 1525n laptops and Inspiron - 530n desktop — with Ubuntu 7.10 Linux distribution factory installed. The Ubuntu-based systems will also include Corel’s LinDVD software, which allows users to play copy protected DVD movies on their systems. Available in Canada at www.dell.ca/open, the systems target the Linux enthusiast community and are a direct result of extensive customer feedback received via www.ideastorm.com, the company’s Web site for fielding customers’ suggestions to improve products, services and operations.

With no software licensing costs associated with Ubuntu, the base systems are competitively priced and fully configured. Hardware support is available through normal Dell support channels, along with the basic software support on a variety of dedicated Dell Web sites and Linux forums. Customers can also choose service upgrades from Canonical, including: 30-day Get Started, One-year Basic and One-Year Standard. More information on Canonical services is available at www.ubuntu.com.
Dell is offering hardware options on each system that have the most mature and stable Linux driver support. These hardware options have been thoroughly tested and certified by Canonical. For hardware options not offered with this release, Dell is working with the vendors of those devices to improve the maturity and stability of their associated Linux drivers, and expects to have a broader range of hardware support with Linux over time.
In response to customer feedback, Dell created a robust Dell Linux Forum, www.dellcommunity.com. The forum provides an easily accessible resource and collaborative environment that enables customers to interact with other Linux enthusiasts, ask questions, share experiences and learn. Customers can customize and purchase Dell’s Ubuntu systems at www.dell.ca/open. [February 25, 2008]
