Dell to Offer Ubuntu
By NEWS RELEASE |
May 2nd, 2007 
Canonical and Dell are pleased to announce a partnership to offer Ubuntu 7.04 on select desktop and notebook products. This is a tremendous step forward for Ubuntu, our users and customers.
More about the announcement is available on the Dell website, including a video interview with Ubuntu’s founder Mark Shuttleworth.
We believe that Dell’s decision is a strong endorsement of Ubuntu and to the work of many in coding, translating and promoting open source software. It is also testament to the demand that exists for Ubuntu.
Canonical is honoured to play a leading role in making Linux more widely available to everyone.
Jane Silber
Canonical – Director of Operations
