Hello Linux community, you can help us decide on an item to offer in our on-line store. Please feel free to paste a URL to this article or directly to our Poll to your friends and acquaintances on the ‘net.
Please take the time to take our poll on shopping.eracc.com about notebook personal computers with Linux preloaded (Voting expires in 4 weeks from today.). Since switching from osCommerce to Drupal + Ubercart, we are in the process of deciding what we will offer in our on-line store. The poll is open for anyone to vote. Comments are allowed to those that create an account on our shopping site. Also, one may come back to this article and post a comment without needing an account if that is preferred.
We will definitely offer Linux notebook pre-loads if there appears to be sufficient interest in purchasing these from ERACC. We are aware there are many other shops, including Dell, which offer notebooks pre-loaded with Linux. Our offer will be to pre-load any of the top 20 major Linux distributions from DistroWatch.com instead of just one or two distributions. We will also offer the commercial versions of Red Hat and SuSE. We would need to require prepayment since these would be customized per customer. So, we are asking the Linux community to respond with a vote in our poll before we make our decision on this offering.
If there appears to be little to no interest in this then we will continue offering only tower PC systems as in the past. Regardless of how you vote, we want to thank you in advance for your participation.
