I bought a Macbook Pro with OSX 10.8 already installed, and I am pretty sure I will not have the same problems as sciurus if I buy 10.9.
Dell could offer support for 13.04, or maybe Canonical could work to better support one of the few laptops out there with ubuntu on it out of the box.
- steveklabnik 13y agoIf a Dell was purchased with Ubuntu pre-installed, I'm sure that a `sudo apt-get dist-upgrade` wouldn't bork during installation either.
- herge 13y agoI think you mis-read sciurus' comment. He said that installing ubuntu 13.04 caused all sorts of problems. Are you saying he would not have had those problems if he did 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade'?
- steveklabnik 13y agoYes, being 'unable to boot the installer' would never happen, by definition.
- Raticide 13y agoIf you have to use the command line then you've already failed.
- steveklabnik 13y agoThere is a GUI equivalent.
- skoob 13y agoI bought an XPS 13 with Ubuntu 12.04 installed. I had absolutely no issues when I upgraded to 13.04.
