The Dell/Ubuntu guys are out of the gates with their first models, and also with their first QA mishap. I like Ubuntu 'n' all, but requiring users to edit their bootloader configuration to hack their way out of your mistake surely leaves a bad impression. Lets just hope that people know what they're getting into when they buy these Dells.
Does this mean that they'll institute a QA cycle at dell for Ubuntu updates before they release them into the wild?
It's hard to tell from the linked page whether this was Dell's fault or Ubuntu's fault.
