The VAR Guy finally received his Ubuntu Linux PC from Dell today. He hasn’t had time to test the system yet but it sounds like power users are generally happy with the new systems. Here’s some initial feedback from Len Sandy, lead blogger at All About Ubuntu.

Joe,
Remember to read some guides and familiarise yourself with Linux. Linux is not Windows, so you will need to ‘adjust’ some existing skills. Linuyx does not mimic other platform and being different from what’s /familiar/ does not mean being inferior.
Additionally, have a lot of Automatix. Many people overlook this bit. With just a few clicks enables a lot of multimedia capabilities, including DVD playback. If you are having questions or problems, do not post them in the news or a blog (it’s a form of trolling for help). Instead, consult forums, which will be friendly, I’m sure.
Glad to see you’re moving to Free software…
Roy
