Comments:
Sorry for posting a comment on an older article. I'm thinking about purchasing a Vostro 3400 and was wondering if you tried the latest 10.10 release of Ubuntu or any other Linux distro on this machine? I'm concerned that I would have to do a little extra to get the wireless card working.

Thanks!
 
Sorry for late reply... Ubuntu 10.10 works fine. No difference with 10.04, except maybe improved graphic performance. You won't have any problem :)
 
Dell launch Vastro series, It is better to other one of Dell series. I have to great experience to use Dell Vostro 3400.
