Toshiba also considering pre-installed Linux

[halfmanhalfamazing]

Toshiba is also contemplating installing Linux on its systems, Toshiba Italy computer division manager Luigi Cattaneo has revealed.

As with Dell's move to Linux, the update would reportedly include home systems as well as pro models. All of Toshiba's notebook-only line would receive the option, including the Qosmio, Portégé, Satellite, and Tecra. The particular distribution of Linux that might be used hasn't been revealed and could be different than the Ubuntu variant chosen by Dell this week.
