FYI....

I just priced two essentially identical Dell E1505 laptops, one with 
Vista Home Premium and one with Ubuntu.

The Vista had an ATI RADEON video while the U had an Intel Graphics 
Accelerator.
The Vista had an Ethernet/modem combo card plus a Dell Wireless 1390b/g, 
while the U had the Intel Pro wireless 3945a/g ($29 more on the Vista) - 
no Ethernet.

Vista cost $1,088. U cost $939. Taxes and shipping extra.

Senility Prayer
God grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway, the 
good fortune to run into the ones that I do, and the eyesight to tell 
the difference.
