Really is a great marketing oportunity. There a lot of great linux distros that never have received the oportunity to be marketed by HP and Dell
What iso image they include on their machines? By sure 1.0 Would be great to have a new iso image with newer kernel, usb sotrage support and more apps, a lot of games so more people have a chance to test it. Would be great a Freedos as live-DVD, full of games and apps, so the people have a fun time testing Freedos. -- -- +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Marco A.
