    I bought my mini 9 from the outlet with XP.
    I am interested in trying out the linux OS that dell provides for the mini 9

    Whereabouts can I get it?

    Thanks

    Dell may have modified it slightly to customize it specifically for the Mini 9, but yes, Ubuntu is the particular Linux distribution used.
