If online articles and blogs are any indication of things, the number of Linux users migrating to, and satisfied with, Ubuntu GNU/Linux seems to be staggering. Given that, it was only a matter of time before a capable company had the resources to offer accessible, affordable Linux desktops and notebooks that delivered the way that Apple's products have. Colorado-based System76 sent us their Darter Ultra for review, and proved that there is an OEM hardware/software combination capable of being the primary PC for the general public.

Unless it's a very non-standard Ubuntu install it certainly does search for wireless connections out of the box. I just got through installing Ubuntu 3 days ago on the DELL D820 my job gave me and the network manager applet right at the top of the screen shows every ssid the card can reach with absolutely no user setup.
