Dell Ships Open Source Computers

Dell has it figured out. You don’t need a pre-installed OS. If you are looking for a bare-bones system, Dell’s n Series is about as bare as it gets, shipping with FreeDOS instead of Windows, a first for the mail-order PC maker. This means that out of the box you can install Linux variant of choice. Or, if you have one of those Windows disks laying about, you can use that. Of course, you can opt to have Dell do the Windows work for you, but where’s the fun in that?
