I have a 4 month old dell and I am not choosing to go the windows route, it
has no OS currently as it was bought at a auction. With the specs belowi
want to make it a linux machine, I have learned via virt machines but want
to do a real desktop distro, I think i have gotten it down to 3 distros but
worried
about drivers, Debian, Fedora, and Ubuntu. I can follow directions on what
is need to mount a usb devices for drivers and install them. I am wondering
what is my best
option. I am open to criticism and comments on what will and will not work,
Dell had nothing on there site for "approved distros" and no i wont sell it
as this is to much
for some one still learning.
