Dell Enters Linux Arena

A new player has entered the Linux arena! Dell has introduced a new laptop, an addition to their Latitude line of systems, that runs Mandriva Linux. Although it isn't my preferred flavor of Ubuntu, it is a start from Microsoft Windows XP. HP has also recently announced that they will be selling Ubuntu laptops soon, with desktops to follow.

As for the new Dell's specifications, the Latitude 110L comes with:
Mandriva Linux installed
1.4 or 1.7 GHz Intel Celeron/Pentium M Processor
RAM ranging from 256MB to 1280MB
DVD Drive
starting price of $930
