    The irony being that Dell laptops made even this year won't accept clean Windows 7 (well, it will, but the Display won't work correctly and the Wifi didn't work until I went and downloaded them from Dell which was a challenge considering I didn't have ethernet. Luckily, my Droid 1 can tether, thanks to a custom rom. What a coincidence. Of course the Ubuntu live disc worked fine and offered to install a better display and wifi driver for me automatically when I had wifi or an internet connection next.
