This is the final step of freeing my computer (Dell XPS M1530). Removing that awful Vista sticker and putting an Ubuntu one!
Video recorded with a Nokia 5700 and mixed with Kdenlive, Cinelerra and WinFF.
Remember of course to format your hard drive and install only a Linux distro on it! The sticker is only the least important part. ;-)

  • i think she is lady or look like lady

  • @eaglekhan101 Sorry but I'm male. :P

  • lady you r tooo expert

  • @eaglekhan101 which lady? :)

  • In these days I'm drawing different penguin stickers in order to cover diffent kind of keyboards (and various kind of greys). I'll try to "fullfil" an entire sheet of paper with as many stickers as possible and then print it on adhesive paper. Do you have any suggestions on the design? Do you know of any model already available? When it's finally well done I'll share it of course. ;)

see all

  • You're doing a lousy job with that glue removing, first peel very SLOWLY the old sticker off, then take an old pricetag,(or sticky tape)then very quickly push it on the rest glue ,then off.on ,off. finally maybe some terpentine to remove rest residue.

  • They should pass a law that says that the Windows logo cannot be on any keyboard where the flag key is. 

  • ok sorry to say like this

  • Easier just to paste the Ubuntu sticker right over the Windows sticker.

  • Hehe the Ubuntu stickers available in Malaysia are slightly different, but they are all cool nonetheless. I stickied my HP lappy with them :D No windows on this baby hehe

  • @SergiBiatchx I've tried it. I believe anyone should choose to remain on proprietary only after having tried freedom. Looks like you tried so you made an informed choice: good. ;)

  • @thelazza Os x is very good. Really! It's better than Ubuntu & windows :) But that's my opinion.

  • @SergiBiatchx but you got OS X on it. I'm sorry for you!

  • that's why I bought a Macbook Pro (: No stupid adhesives nor stupid Windows/ubuntu on it ;)

  • @thelazza a dont knol for you but my hp probook 4515s is now having the windows logo on the start menu thing now! :D and how did i did it?! with a ubuntu sticker :)

  • @o770 ITS OK LOL THE PRODUCE A LITTLE UBUNTU STICKER THAT GOES RIGHT OVER THE WINDOWS LOGO =D

  • ubuntu suck's

  • @o770 that makes sense... It's useful when you use Compiz. XD Finally the Super key has a meaning. :) Anyway you can always add a sticker to it... or use some acid. :P

  • Windows still has its key in your keyboard - the one linux calls Super.

  • @wilfeatscheese yes but I was worried about damaging my laptop.

  • ;i think you an use acetone to remove that kind of adhesive :)

  • @turbotonic27 Dell XPS M1530. :)

  • is that a fujisu siemens amilo xa2528 ?

  • nice
