Since last year, Canonical has been actively developing cooperation with PC manufacturers. The number of Ubuntu models preinstalled on laptops, netbooks, desktops, and servers has increased. Please refer to: Ubuntu10.04 is LTS, it is a classic version. It should have been the most pre-installed, but it was exceeded by Ubuntu10.10 of the same year. This indicates that the pre-installed Ubuntu machine model is growing rapidly. The release of Ubuntu11.04 is close to Ubuntu10.04 in less than half a month.

Ubuntu 10.04 is a classic version of LTS, which should have been the most pre-installed, but has been exceeded by Ubuntu 10.10 of the same year. This indicates that the pre-installed Ubuntu machine model is growing rapidly. In less than half a month after Ubuntu 11.04 was released, it has achieved nearly 10.04 of Ubuntu, thanks to the cooperation between Ubuntu and Lenovo and the support of its partner Dell.
Dell has always been the best partner of Ubuntu, but this position will be considered as surpassing:
Of course, most of the partnerships between Lenovo and Ubuntu are reflected in laptops.
However, when these computers flow into China, Ubuntu will soon be replaced with Pirated WINDOWS (recently, it is reported that the piracy rate of Chinese software is close to 80%), so if you want to develop in China, in addition to the customized Ubuntu Chinese version, you may need to wait for the time.
