Linux On Dell Desktops And Laptops

The availability of Linux on Dell computers

A lot of people believe that Linux on Dell computers starts and stops with the N-Series computers, and that is not correct.

N-Series Computers:

These are Workstation, Desktop, and Laptops computers that Dell has made available for sale with no Operating System installed. (They ship with a FreeDOS install disc.)

Workstations:

Dell offers select Workstation computers with Red Hat Enterprise Workstation version 8.6 and Ubuntu 22.04 as an alternative to Windows.

Desktops and Laptops:

Dell offers Ubuntu 22.04 on select products, as an alternative to Windows or Chrome.
