I read since ThinkDigit.com that Dell, together with canonical ltd plan to sell netbooks and laptops with this distro in the India.
You can find the Dell Inspiron 14R y 15R with Ubuntu pre-installed from the same next week, as well as at the end of the year more models of Dell with this OS.
Sameer Garde (President of Dell India) said:
With Ubuntu, these machines will offer our consumers a compelling proposition for mobile or home computing, and this will also include Dell's benefits in terms of quality and safety. I am confident that they will appeal to both users (business or home).
He further added:
The Indian government has had quite a bit of support for the vision behind Ubuntu. The Supreme Court (or Supreme Court) of India has been using it on some 20.000 computers.
Without a doubt another action from Dell that deserves our applause.
I wish and this was contagious, so more countries in the world would bet on Free Software.
