Maybe others have posted this, but I just noticed it:

As part of an overall effort to update our Linux program, today we are announcing a partnership with Canonical to offer Ubuntu on select consumer desktop and notebook products.
This is their post in their forums:

Of course, it would be nice if they started to supply Linux drivers for their printers, especially the All-In-One ones that use proprietary protocols. Like my AIO 922.

Little but late. There is already a discussion of this.
