Dell’s been showing Ubuntu lots of love over the past few months, so it’s no real shock to see the Linux-based operating system slide on over to Dell’s hottest (literally and figuratively) 13-incher. The Studio XPS 13 can now be ordered with Ubuntu 8.10 or 7.04 right from the factory, though it seems you’ll be forced to upgrade to Jaunty Jackalope once the rig hits your doorstep. Ah well, you won’t find us kvetching over added options, so we’ll just pencil on a smile and raise a glass to diversity at Round Rock.
