Dell's Barton George talks Project Sputnik at Ubuntu on Air

Project Sputnik is an exciting Dell-powered effort to materialize a laptop targeted mainly towards developers, aiming at providing a both powerful and fancy experience.

Days ago, Project Sputnik shifted from a pilot to a product stage, taking the bondage between Dell XPS13 laptops and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS a step further towards the probable 2012 fall's official launch.

Along with the near-future exciting announcements related to the developer-focused laptops (built-in profile tool and cloud tool), Project Sputnik gathered a solid amount of questions across the internets, questions mainly answered by Dell's Barton George as part of a live interview on UbuntuonAir.

Project Sputnik's laptop is to come officially preloaded with Ubuntu 12.04in the upcoming fall (2012), furthermore, the Dell developers are taking in consideration the possibility of delivering the mentioned laptops featuring an Ubuntu logo(as opposed to the "regular" Windows button).

The geographical areas (from where the Project Sputnik's laptops are to be bought) are not (officially) known and crystallized, bearing an in-progress attitude, nevertheless, Barton George stated that various Dell programs are launched in more than 130 countries, consequently, although the landing areas are unknown, there are numerous possibilities.

Probably, the fancy laptops are to be available on online media, probably without the availability in physical shops, due to developers' lack of intention and aiming at "not to that point".
