Dell adds to Linux notebook range

By

Dell has added the Inspiron 1525 notebook to its range of Linux-based Ubuntu products..


The vendor is including built-in DVD playback capabilities in line with its other systems running Ubuntu 7.10.

The Ubuntu-powered Inspiron 1525 is currently only available for customers in the UK, France, Spain and Germany.

Dell claims to have based its latest Ubuntu-based products on feedback from more than 100,000 visitors on the company's IdeaStorm website, set up last year to canvas customer opinion on their preferred Linux-based laptop.

Dell took its first Ubuntu steps in the US last May when it preloaded the OS on two desktop systems and an Inspiron E1505n laptop.
