How official are publications in Dell's "Knowledge Base"? This one looks like it was written by a non-native English speaker, and doesn't seem to provide much Dell-specific information.
- agonzalezro 11y agoAs far as I know they are directly coming from Dell. That's the "breaking" part of this manual, that a retailer as big as them are trying to explain how to get rid of Windows and just install a Linux distro.
- dogma1138 11y agoThey have been selling Ubuntu on laptops for years now, you used to be able to get it on low end laptops like the vostro now days it seems its reserved for developer editions of their xps line only.
- gtk40 11y agoThey have some cheaper ones too, such as this: http://www.dell.com/us/p/inspiron-15-3551-laptop-ubuntu/pd?ref=PD_Family http://www.dell.com/us/p/inspiron-15-3551-laptop-ubuntu/pd?r... (also a 14" for cheaper) I have a Dell Mini 9 that I got for >$200 years (2009?) that came with Ubuntu that I still use regularly. Now it's running Puppy Linux (Slackware based) though.

- tormeh 11y agoI don't get that. I would pay more for official Ubuntu support. Like, $150 more.
