RE:	[Nottingham] Dell taking Linux seriously now?

 
Hmm,

http://direct2dell.com/one2one/archive/2007/03/12/7985.aspx

"Your feedback on Dell IdeaStorm has been astounding.  Thank you!  We
hear your requests for desktops and notebooks with Linux.  We're
crafting product offerings in response, but we'd like a little more
direct feedback from you: your preferences, your desires.  We
recognize some people prefer notebooks over desktops, high-end models
over value models, your favorite Linux distribution, telephone-based
support over community-based support, and so on.  We can't offer
everything (all systems, all distributions, all support options), so
we've crafted a survey (www.dell.com/linuxsurvey) to let you help us
prioritize what we should deliver for you.

Taking a few minutes to complete this survey will help us define our
forthcoming Linux-based system offerings. We will close the survey on
Friday, March 23. From there, we'll take some time to analyze your
feedback and work to provide the platforms and options you choose.

Thanks in advance for your participation. More details soon."

Simon
