Dell, oddly enough, is listening to the many thousands of direct requests its customers made during its big public brainstorm (aka IdeaStorm) not so far back. The result of nearly 70% of participants requesting Linux on Dell machines?

It was only a matter of time. Chalk up one for the Penguin. IBM, and now Dell, who will be next. And, will Linux become a mainstream option? Say goodbye to the Microsoft "tax" on new PC's. It will be interesting to see how Microsoft reacts to this state of affairs?
Of course Microsoft may be ahead of, and in charge of, this change. Novell and Microsoft are playing nice lately and Dell will be distributing Novell's SuSE Linux correct? I wonder if Microsoft will be providing the license for the Dell Linux versions?
