Dell Latitude-On - Linux by stealth

My lastest post to Vizitant, where I focus on video-calling, telepresence and virtual worlds.

When Dell announced Latitude-On in conjunction with the launch of it's new series of Latitude notebooks I was excited to know if the range of instant-on applications would include Skype (as does Splashtop on some Asus laptops). Dissapointingly it seems not, so that rules out super quick access to video-calling.

Still these must be worrying times for Microsoft when they see Dell developing dedicated sub-systems running a Linux OS variant to do a run-around Windows for a large percentage of computing tasks.
