Canonical, the editor of the Ubuntu distribution of Linux today announced a partnership with Lenovo will market, by the end of the first half, thirty ThinkPad certified to work with the operating system. Some of them are already on sale. Certification is not necessary to run Ubuntu on a Lenovo, but it serves as a business tool as it is possible to choose the operating system at the time of purchase.
It is also a guarantee for companies that have ensured that all components will be recognized easily without having to go through manipulations that can cost time and money. This agreement demonstrates the desire of Lenovo to continue working with Canonical to offer its distribution to more consumers, which is always a good thing for competition.
Certified machines have Intel or AMD. In short, all based on a Ubuntu ThinkPad x86.

There is an unofficial version of the operating system that this instruction set support Ubuntu and tablets from Taiwanese manufacturers unfamiliar are expected this year.
However, the Linux distribution that has made a name for the general public on the PC market seems to miss this appointment.
