It doesn't come with my favorite distro. of Linux, but it's Linux!

Dell's decision to put arguably its best laptop on sale preloaded with
Ubuntu Linux shows not only how far desktop Linux has come but how far
Microsoft has fallen. Dell announced its Project Sputnik earlier this
year to a warm if not ecstatic reception. The firm had preloaded Linux
onto its consumer machines before but they were hard to find and on
forgettable machines. However with the XPS 13 the firm is not only
loading Linux on its most high profile laptop but showing that
Microsoft's operating system isn't the only choice in town for OEMs and
consumers alike.
