The Linux-based Ubuntu OS is finding its way into tablets with Dell's latest Inspiron hybrids, which can function as tablets and laptops.

The PC maker is offering Ubuntu as an OS option alongside Windows 8 on its new hybrids, the Inspiron 11 3000, which has an 11.6-inch screen, and Inspiron 13 7000, which has a 13-inch screen.

The hybrids turn from laptops into tablets when the screen is rotated 360 degrees, much like Lenovo's Yoga, which pioneered the design. Dell announced the 19.4-millimeter thick hybrids at the Computex trade show in Taipei on Monday.

Dell wants to offer Ubuntu on touchscreen devices, and has the OS in an experimental XPS 13 ultrabook called "Project Sputnik," which has a high starting price of $1,089. The ultrabook is popular with developers building Linux drivers for ultrabooks and touchscreen devices.
