I guess DELL is getting smart. Not selling Ubuntu any more

With almost NOBODY purchasing Dell computers, no wonder why they don't
offer Ubuntu on their site any more.

Everyone knows that Ubuntu was written by geeks for geeks who can't get
laid.

Ubuntu is worth exactly what you pay for it: NOTHING

HA HA HA
Eat your heart out Alias.

I just checked Dell's site and see they are selling Linux machines..
Ubuntu 8.04

Of course that's an older version of Ubuntu and I think it odd that they
are not using version 9.04


Doesn't affect me as I build all my own machines...so I really don't
care what the heck Dell does

It's not one of their main selection options but they do sell some.
If you bothered to read that article, the guy said he heard they weren't
going to sell any more, then updated it the next day to say they were.

They are way overpriced machines, I've seen much better ones at
tigerdirect.com, bestbuy.com for much less with Vista Premium, but they do
sell them.

If you bothered to look at the pitiful givings on the dell site
regarding Ubuntu, they state the following:

---------------
Not sure Open Source is for You?

The main thing to note is that when you choose open source you don’t get
a Windows® operating system. If you’re here by mistake and you are
looking for a Dell PC with Windows, please use the following link.

<link to windows>

--------------


So they just figure if you "chose" Ubuntu, you probably made an error
and give you the opportunity to correct yourself by providing a link to
purchase Windows. Way to go DELL!

Whereas letting a chick know you run MS Windows is a sure ticket to a
wet night with her and her sister.

Idiot.

No self respecting computer user would use Linux on the desktop unless
they just want to waste time and play with their computer.

No need to post your IQ.

Of course you speak with experience in that area. Loser.

Just to underline the point some of you already made. We are just
refreshing our Linux desktop line. We should have some back on the site
soon. Thanks

8.04 is the last LTS version. The next is not due until 10.04.....
That's why.
