["Fred A. Miller" <fmiller@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

When Michael Dell took back the reins of he company he founded, one of 
the first things he did was to launch the feedback site Dell Idea Storm. 
Following up on the recent Slashdot discussion of the early results of 
this experiment — an overwhelming expressed desire for pre-loaded Linux 
— Dell reports on what it plans to do with this feedback. Quoting: "[W]e 
are working with Novell to certify our corporate client products for 
Linux, including our OptiPlex desktops, Latitude notebooks and Dell 
Precision workstations. [On the question of which distro to choose:] 
"[T]here is no single customer preference for a distribution of Linux... 
We want users to have the opportunity to help define the market for 
Linux on desktop and notebook systems. In addition to working with 
Novell, we are also working with other distributors and evaluating the 
possibility of additional certifications across our product line."
