Ubuntu takes a page from Dell’s playbook

A fantastic thing Dell does for it’s customers is its Brainstorm site where they can tell the company what they’d love to see from the company. Comments on Dell’s Brainstorm site were responsible for our finally being able to get a Dell computer with Linux, specifically Ubuntu Linux, preinstalled.

Last week Ubuntu took the wraps off their new brainstorm.ubuntu.com site, in hope that it will be an even better way to find out what we users want than the Launchpad is.
