I admit it. I loved this story. If the English Court has decided to sell computers with Ubuntu Linux is because there is demand and if there is at last free software is reaching the general public and that's always good news.
Computers in particular that are selling with Ubuntu are quite modest for the times, but of course, Ubuntu can afford. And the price: 229 €.

It was about time, pay an operating system that you do not like or that you do not need it made little sense. I think this is just the beginning, the prices of computers can be adjusted little and manufacturers to opt for the free operating systems will have a price competitive advantage will be decisive in the crisis we are.
This kind of news, especially me up spirits. While it is true that these computers are cortitos in their technical specifications for certain things, what is the daily work are great. All that is needed for people to see you have another option, which must always follow the same path and that free software can offer the same or even better applications to do their job better and many other things in your daily life including leisure. In addition we are back to business as usual, that will always be 100% legal without having to have applications installed that do not pirate software being able to afford to pay the owner.
