Dell Inspiron 15n: Ubuntu Loaded

Budget-conscious users or those who just refuse to belong to the people who make Bill Gates rich should consider this latest package from Dell. Their new Inspiron 15n notebook is fully customizable; from the lid color to the innards. The neat thing however is the Ubuntu Linux OS that’s pre-loaded in the machine. No Windows OS means no high cost. Base price is set at $299 but a little more coercion from your wallet will give you a Pentium Dual Core T4200 2 GHz processor. A 15.6″ glossy LCD display, 160 GB SATA HDD, Ethernet, wireless 802.11 g card, and an 8x combo drive comes with the package too. Expect them to be shipped mid-June. $334.
