Linux on Netbook a failure? Dell doesn't seem to think so.

humans-enabled.com — As you can see in the picture(taken 04-23-09) of Dell's Netbook selection page (left) for the Dell Inspiron Mini 9, Ubuntu Linux is just as choice-worthy as the "other" Operating System selection. The choice is 50/50 in this instance.

  • MattBD, on 04/24/2009, -1/+3The new Ubuntu Netbook Remix works pretty well on my Eee PC - I've got it installed on an SD card and it's the first OS I've been able to get to boot from SD. Mine is one of the 2GB Surf ones so there's no room on the internal drive.
