I read the report and thought I will go and take a look at Dell. I
need a new laptop and I am thinking of Apple once again. So I head
over to Dell and knock up a rough spec similar to an Apple and it
comes out more expensive. Ok I didn't have the choice of removing xp
but still it makes me think - buy Apple.

Why am I saying this? Well Ubuntu does need a Dell to promote it and
to do it now. I might be thinking differently if I had run the same
spec and picked Ubuntu and found £80 less. But then again maybe not.
