Re: [Ubuntu-BR] Dell Com Ubuntu
Nem sempre, no ano passado eu comprei o melhor notebook ofertado pela Dell, um i7 com 16 GB RAM, vídeo ATI com 2GB dedicados e touchscreen, já com Ubuntu 14.04 LTS préinstalado. O preço foi muito bom e estava quase R$ 300,00 mais barato que o mesmo computador com Windows. Eles não podem vender computador sem SO algum, então ou você compra com Windows (e paga por ele, sem direito a reembolso), ou então já compra com Ubuntu. Eles poderiam vender com FreeDOS ou outra coisa assim para não cobrar o Windows, mas aparentemente não compensa pra eles a logística de disponibilizar mais uma "configuração" de micros só por causa disso. Não reclamo, já acho que fizerem o bastante em oferecer computadores com Ubuntu, coisa que nenhum outro grande fabricante estabelecido no Brasil faz.

Re: [Ubuntu-BR] Dell Com Ubuntu
Não sei como está agora mas creio que a informação de não haver direito a reembolso é improcedente. Comprei meu Inspiron 5447 no ano passado e não tive problema algum em receber o reembolso pela licença do Windows que nunca ativei. Em 20 de janeiro de 2016 09:34, Marcelo Magno T.

Re: [Ubuntu-BR] Dell Com Ubuntu
Comigo foi realmente muito tranquilo, bastou uma ligação, alguns minutos confirmando dados de identificação e aguardar alguns dias. É óbvio que tem alguns requisitos, por exemplo, o contrato de usuário (aquele mesmo que é mostrado na primeira execução do SO Windows) não pode ter sido aceito e, obviamente, eles só reembolsam compras realizadas através do site deles. Se o notebook foi comprado em revendedores, aí a vaca vai para o brejo. O gabarito é o seguinte, se comprou no site deles e vai usar Ubuntu (ou qualquer outra distribuição Linux, BSD, etc) , já ligue o notebook com um Live Pendrive plugado, nem deixe o Windows dar o primeiro boot. :) Atenciosamente, *Renê Barbosa de Figueirêdo Lima* Website: http://renebarbosa.com.br Em 20 de janeiro de 2016 10:08, Marcelo Magno T.

Re: [Ubuntu-BR] Dell Com Ubuntu
Já faz algum tempo que eles vendem notebooks com Ubuntu, o chato é que os equipamentos que eles vendem com este SO, normalmente, são mais "fracos" que os vendidos com o Windows.

Can't tell you how big a smile was on my face after reading this too!! Great post. The momentum is building and I am genuinely excited to seeing the growth of Ubuntu in the next few years if not sooner! Its a credit to the thousands of people who have put hours of their own time into making something great for reasons other than profit or personal gain. Something rare these days as I am sure you will all agree. Well done to all those involved past, present and in the future and keep up the hard work :o) P.s FREE not fee - Doh!

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Dell with Ubuntu?
Dell seemed to stop the distribution of machines preloaded with Ubuntu, around the time that Windows 7 was launched. The Inspiron 1525 which I purchaced with Ubunto loaded then became unavailable, but has since been relaunched as a Windows 7 version with a much higher prce tag. In the past, some computer manufacturers have refunded the operating system cost where acceptance of the Microsoft agreement was rejected, with no request for the return of the back-up cd's, might be worth asking. It has now become difficult to find a supplier of branded computers preloaded with Ubuntu. My Dell 1525 is a Windows-free zone and will stay that way. The volume computer manufacturers are long overdue for another wake-up call. Ubuntu will not just fade away !

I'm a bit baffled as well - http://www.dell.co.uk/ubuntu used to link to a (very) limited list of Ubuntu laptops - and a couple of Desktops occasionally.but it would appear that now it takes you to a list of machines running Windows, with no option to get Ubuntu pre-installed or even to order without an OS (and the subsequent OEM licence fee). I think it's only fair to explain the differences to people though between the operating systems. The number of tasks requiring command line usage are becoming less frequent in Ubuntu, but this is still often the easiest way of resolving issues, and that can create a lot of fear for people The other issue that needs to be highlighted is software incompatibility - there is plenty of software out there that requires Windows and won't run in Wine, not to mention hardware that doesn't play nicely in linux. I've seen an alarming trend in hardware with web based interfaces that require ActiveX as well (some managed Linksys Cisco Small Business switches, Sony IP CCTV cameras). All of these are potential issues that users need to be aware of - and rose tinting the issues ruins the users overall experience, as they see Linux as an obastacle to doing what they want to do.

I had exactly the same problem. The website says it but there are no links to actual machines, it's strange. I phoned them up and asked about the phantom Ubuntu machines and after a bit of discussion they gave me a quote on a netbook that I saw that was listed as running Windows.

[ubuntu-in] Dell and Ubuntu!
It is futile to argue about something that is out in the open. I admit that dell is offering support for ubuntu hardy but in those early days, there was no support available for gutsy. Anyways no point in talking about the past. Even now, the dell linux wiki comes with a disclaimer about no technical support being available. Last but not the least, my dear Onkar, I am running ubuntu hardy on a Dell Inspiron 1420. And maybe thats one of the reasons why I fell for a Dell. My objection is to the fact that all laptop users are being forced to buy windows vista, and that I think is a major impedance to widespread adoption of ubuntu, and linux. I went with Dell because they had the courage to go against the norm. orthodoc -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

@Onkar: Well, my point was that Vostro is listed under the buisness category alongwith XPS, Latitude and Precison while Inspiron/XPS under the home( Home/Home Office, rather - whatever that means) category in the Dell website. If Dell is going to offer Vostro laptops with ubuntu pre loaded I will be very happy compared to all those blissfully unaware around me. Unfortunately even as I write the laptop in question (Vostro A series )is mentioned but cannot be configured, and so I assume cannot be ordered. Also the fact that it will be unsupported will not find many takers, especially in India. SaaS is a new concept, and it will be some time before people here adapt to it. But I completely agree that ubuntu is a wonderful OS and I use nothing but ubuntu at home and in the hospital. @List: But to shift the focus a little away, here is something intresting that i read: http://polishlinux.org/linux/how-to-get-a-refund-for-windows-in-poland/ There are a few other links following the translated story on a similiar vein!

I can see a button 'Request a quotation' on website. So it may not be possible to order immediately. I am not sure how you reached conclusion 'Not supported'. Even though I have never bought any Dell laptop, AFAIK Dell laptop's build quality is far better than most other vendors in India. So may be there won't be many support calls.

@Gourav: Only the Vostro laptops are available in India without Vista. But the Inspiron and XPS ranges are not. The vostro range is designed to meet the need of buisnesses and not a normal everyday user. @list: I am not sure Dell is interested in promoting ubuntu in India as of now! I would think they are more into making their presence felt, brand promotion and so on. I think that the launch of MID's holds greater promise in the growth of ubuntu in India.

[ubuntu-in] Dell and ubuntu!
Friends, Hope this is not too late to chip in. I have an Inspiron 1420 that i bought in Dec 2007. Have been running ubuntu on the same. Had a few issues with sound and video in gutsy but hardy is fine ...no issues at all. Not crashed even once and am using it full time. Have vista on a partition but haven't been there for a long time now. I've installed ubuntu on XPS as well for a few friends and it has worked well. Dell India is not selling any laptops with ubuntu pre loaded. Don't even ask the guys, they don't have any clue about what ubuntu is. I tried hard for them to sell me one without vista so that I don't have to pay for the vista. But they refused, however i got a 5000 discount after some hard bargaining. At that time Dell was selling laptops online only but now they are in the shops. And introductory offers are usually with a discount, so go for it. If you buy online, they will come from Sriperumbudur(near chennai) and not Malaysia, like mine did. If you are getting one from the US be sure to buy a global warranty so that in case of needing service you can have it done locally and not send it back to the US. I can have mine serviced in the Asia_pacific region and not elsewhere, but that suit me well and I'm happy. orthodoc. -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

[Ubuntu-be] Dell goes Ubuntu
Dell voorziet Linux-pc's van Hardy Heron Door *Willem de Moor* http://tweakers.net/plan/crew/239, dinsdag 22 juli 2008 15:18, views: 2.287 Dell heeft aangekondigd dat diverse consumenten-pc's met de nieuwste versie van Ubuntu Linux geleverd kunnen worden. 'Hardy Heron' kan op verschillende XPS-laptops en Inspiron-notebooks en -dekstops worden voorgeïnstalleerd. [image: Ubuntu logo]Sinds Ubuntu 8.04, ook wel bekend als Hardy Heron, in april werd vrijgegeven, is Dell druk bezig geweest de Linux-distributie met zijn consumentenproducten compatibel te maken. Het resultaat is inmiddels beschikbaar: Ubuntu kan voortaan op een selectie laptops en desktops geïnstalleeerdhttp://yourblog.direct2dell.com/2008/07/18/dell-upgrades-consumer-linux-pcs-to-ubuntu-804/worden; als optie is er ook telefonische ondersteuning verkrijgbaar. Kopers uit de Verenigde Staten, Canada, enkele Zuid-Amerikaanse landen, Frankrijk, Duitsland, Spanje of het Verenigd Koninkrijk kunnen Ubuntu 'Hardy Heron' bestellen in combinatie met een XPS M1330N-laptop, een Inspiron 1525N-laptop en een Inspiron 530N-desktop. Nederlandse en Belgische klanten kunnen echter nog niet voor Ubuntu kiezen. Volgens Simone Versteeg, woordvoerster van Dell Nederland, volgt het bedrijf over het algemeen initiatieven van andere landen. Zij vermoedt dat ook de Benelux 'binnenkort' een Dell met Linux mag verwachten, maar tot die tijd kunnen klanten volgens haar ook kiezen voor een kale pc of laptop, zonder besturingssysteem. Ze kunnen dan zelf Ubuntu of een andere Linux-distributie naar keus installeren, al wordt daar uiteraard geen ondersteuning door de klantenservice bij geboden. De Ubuntu 8.04-versie die Dell elders met zijn hardware meelevert, is getest op naadloze ondersteuning voor de hardware van het bedrijf: de videokaart, het draadloze netwerk, de vingerafdruklezer, hdmi en bluetooth zouden allemaal feilloos onder Linux moeten werken. Ook de pakketten die het mogelijk moeten maken Windows Media- en dvd-bestanden af te spelen worden meegeleverd.

[Ubuntu-BR] Dell com Ubuntu?
Pessoal, só para constar: Lembro-me de comentários nesta lista, em Fevereiro se não me engano, a respeito da Dell pretender viabilizar seus equipamentos com uma distro Ubuntu personalizada, o que, na época, achei uma excelente iniciativa. No entanto, recebo mensalmente seu catálogo de ofertas e, a cada novo catálogo, vejo crescer a propaganda desta aos softs Microsoft o que, ao meu ver, deveria ser o contrário. No catálogo deste mês, além de constar na capa A Dell recomenda o Windows Vista Business, uma das últimas páginas inteiras foi dedicada à propaganda dos produtos Microsoft... Não há a necessidade de flames e comentários a respeito. Abraços a todos.

[ubuntu-marketing] Dell Desktop (ubuntu) pricing
I am in the market now, for a desktop and would like it to have been a Dell, supporting Ubuntu and Dell too. However, I have looked in detail this morning and it seemed expensive compared to the windows stuff, so I did a detail comparison, twice, just to be sure. With identical hardware choices except for graphics cards (similar power) the Ubuntu option comes out at 100 uk pounds more, In my case, 629 uk pounds (ubuntu) 529 uk pounds (vista home) Obviously the deals seem to be with the windows stuff and they are not being carried to the ubuntu section. I am surprised there is such a difference, and it unfortunately means I will not be deciding to buy from dell, it would be crazy. details: === Ubuntu: === N-Series Intel® Core™ 2 Duo E6550 Processor (2.33GHz, 1333Mhz FSB, 2MB cache) Ubuntu Desktop Edition version 7.10 HARDWARE SUPPORT1 Year Base Warranty 19in SE198WFP WIDESCREEN UK/Irish Silver (1280X800) TCO03 DVI-D 4096MB 667MHz Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM [4x1024] 500GB (7200rpm) SATA Hard Drive 128MB nVidia® GeForce® 8300GS Turbocache graphics card DVD+/-RW DVD Drives (read/write CD DVD), 2 drives Dell™ Entry Quietkey USB Keyboard - UK/Irish (QWERTY) Dell 2 Button USB Scroll Optical Mouse - Black Accessories Integrated 7.1 Channel High Definition Audio Dell™ A225 Speakers No Floppy Drive No Modem Services Software No Ubuntu Support No Accidental Damage Support Also included with your system Gedis Bundle Reference D055N02 Dell System Media Kit N-Series Resource DVD - contains Diagnostics and Drivers Shipping Documents English Documentation with UK/Irish Power Cord Order Information Inspiron Desktop Order Uk Standard Warranty 1Yr Limited Warranty - Collect Return Online Promotion Option for GEDIS Configs Dell Internet Order === windows: === Intel® Core™ 2 Duo E6550 Processor (2.33GHz,1333MHz,4MB cache) Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium - English 1 Year Base Warranty 19in SE198WFP WIDESCREEN UK/Irish Silver (1280X800) TCO03 DVI-D 4096MB 667MHz Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM [4x1024] 500GB (7200rpm) SATA Hard Drive 128MB ATI® Radeon™ HD 2400 Pro graphics card DVD+/-RW DVD Drives (read/write CD DVD), 2 drives Dell™ Entry Quietkey USB Keyboard - UK/Irish (QWERTY) Dell 2 Button USB Scroll Optical Mouse - Black Accessories Integrated 7.1 Channel High Definition Audio Dell™ A225 Speakers 19-in-1 Media Card Reader No Modemedit Microsoft® Works 9.0 - English Services Software No Accidental Damage Support No Security/Anti-Virus Protection - English Also included with your system Dell System Media Kit Resource DVD - (Diagnostics Drivers) Shipping Documents English Documentation with UK/Irish Power Cord Gedis Bundle Reference D055019 Order Information Inspiron Desktop Order Uk Standard Warranty 1Yr Limited Warranty - Collect Return Online Promotion Option for GEDIS Configs Dell Internet Order -- alan cocks Kubuntu user#10391 -- ubuntu-marketing mailing list ubuntu-marketing@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-marketing
