[ale] Microcenter sells a PC loaded with Linux! of 20)

Dell has been offering their OptiPlex workstations with Ubuntu for a while, now.
Too bad that is the only option.  The good thing is that it means they have hardware tested/capable of running on Linux with a minimal amount of tinkering.

The trouble with being punctual is that people think you have nothing more important to do.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
