Dell Says “We Hear You” and Will Ship Linux Pre-installed

Dell, Linux Wins, Microsoft Add comments

Straight from DELL March 28 2007.

Dell says we hear you!

Our first step in this effort is offering Linux pre-installed on select desktop and notebook systems. We will provide an update in the coming weeks that includes detailed information on which systems we will offer, our testing and certification efforts, and the Linux distribution(s) that will be available. The countdown begins today.

This could be the tipping point. Expect a flurry of press from Redmond to counter this.
