general.

Hi. I purchased the first MS Pro on ebay after hearing of a like project on the Linux Action Show. I do a lot of traveling and I am always feeling bad about not having a something with open source on it.

So one of the best for travel is the MS surface pro.

In short it works great with Ubuntu.

Very interesting possibility

I didn't realize that installing any kind of Linux on a Surface was a possibility; a whole new category of hardware to re-purpose! Thanks for another great episode. :)
