Hi, I wanted to recommend a notebook to a friend - and what do I read on the Ubuntu homepage: http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/make/Dell/laptops - "(Pre-installed only, with notes)" or even worse "(Pre-installed only)"
HELLO?!? - I mean, even if there would be a terrific increase in offered machines with Ubuntu on them (which is what Bug #1 wants), I hope we want to keep being open. Ubuntu certified must be that it works out-of-the-box (not only with the preinstalled installation) - as this is what is expected by the Windows users on Windows also (re-install must be possible with whatever CD of Windows) - so when a user buys an Ubuntu-certified machine, he/she should get one that works even after manual reinstall from any Ubuntu-x.y-CD. The Ubuntu-certified standard should not be soaked.
