Clicking on the links and proceeding through 'customize' though, only 
one of them allows you to choose Ubuntu, and 8.04 at that. 
Interestingly the Latitude 2100 had an 8.10 option (beneath a large 
'Dell recommends Windows' message) which wasn't there when I tried to 
buy a laptop a few weeks ago.

Because, if you look at the tech specs, they list Ubuntu 7.04 as a 
supported OS.
