The notebooks you sell still include the MS-tax... If Dell is selling 
computers with linux pre-installed, they will hopefully not charge the 
MS-tax.

Also, Dell is now working with Novell and other companies to certify their 
hardware for linux, which should result in the availability of a 100% linux 
compatible notebook. Imho now the most compatible laptops are 90% (or if you 
are lucky 99%) linux compatible.

Imho, it is a good point that Dell will be selling computers with linux 
pre-installed. It does not make them holy, but it's a step in the right 
direction.
