How important is Dell's Linux desktop deal?
,----[ Quote ]
| Borrowing a page from open-source guru Eric Raymond's speech in
| 2006 about the Linux desktop, Selby added, "Additionally, a
| barrier to Linux desktop adoption has been getting the thing
| installed and all the hardware to work. People don't want to
| futz around with drivers and wrappers; they want to shred
| tracks, play tunes and videos, and surf the Web. Ubuntu, more
| than any other free distro to date, makes this possible."
