Zareason Linux box

I have taken delivery of a Zareason Linux box. Besides Dell, Zareason is one of the few computer assemblers to endorse Ubuntu Linux. They offer to built custom computers on Shuttle’s KPC ”towers” with the option of preinstalled Linux Ubuntu.  The tower is about the same size as a shoe box and feature a customisable front cover.

After unpacking, I plugged it with a Western European power cable and switched it on. Failing to activate the WiFi card, I emailed Zareason tech support, who replied within 7 minutes with the solution: I hadn’t noticed an antenna that needed to be screwed on the card. And voilà! I connected it to my USB external drive and loaded the pictures folder. I then proceeded to painstakingly list all the additional applications of the Dell laptop to install them on the KPC.

*****
Zareason deserves a 5 stars rating for the outstanding customer support service.
