I am using dell vostro v3446 that comes with pre installed Ubuntu. Moreover I am using dell vostro a840 from past six years that was also came with Ubuntu. I haven't installed any windows OS or any paid software. I am using Ubuntu over it and it works well with other Linux distributions like arch Linux etc. Everything runs smoothly on these dell machines On 25 Jun 2015 12:17, "Mandar Vaze / मंदार वझे" <mandarv...@gmail.com> wrote:
