Linux has better hardware support than OS X
Interestingly, I run Ubuntu on a MacBook and a MacBook Air.  As they are a "fixed" target, I figured that at least one developer would have made sure that they "just worked".  And, indeed, they did.<p>The installation tutorial was comprehensive, the out of the box experience was great, and upgrades have gone smoothly.<p>The only thing to note was that I was able to <i>manually</i> update the WiFi drivers for (supposedly) better performance if I wanted.  Power consumption seems marginally higher, but I don't run the same profile of programs in OSX.<p>Having a fixed target is really good for Linux to show how it can shine - and I hope that Dell and Ubuntu continue to make perfectly matched hardware and software.
