After strong pressure from open-source fans worldwide, Dell has added another territory to its Linux PC domain, launching two computer models for the British market with Ubuntu Linux pre-installed.
Dell has denied that it will no longer offer Ubuntu on Inspiron systems sold in the UK, and has maintained that a problem which meant that some customers were unable to buy the software pre-installed has now been fixed.
Dell's UK launch of PCs pre-installed with the Ubuntu Linux operating system has run into trouble, with the company admitting to issues it described only as "gremlins".
Acer won't commit to pre-installing Linux on its line-up in Australia, despite hinting that it would do so in the UK.
From Monday, office supplies retailer Officeworks will start selling a limited range of pre-configured Dell PCs and laptops at 104 locations across the country.
