Inspiron 17-3721 and Linux
Hi all
I've been using a Vostro 1700 with assorted linuxes for the past five and a half years. It's been an excellent machine, and is still in good working order so now it's time to replace it, I'm looking again at Dell.
The Inspiron 17-3721 looks as if it will cover my needs well, but I'm struggling to find anything definitive on running Linux on this machine.
Has anyone installed Linux on one of these? Were there any issues? UEFI and secure boot come to mind as particular possible problem areas, but I'd love to hear from anyone with any experience of Linux on one of these machines.
Thanks,
Adrian
