If you've given up hope that Dell will ever ship Linux with its systems, take a look at the list of computers used by Dell's Chairman of the Board&l=en&s=corp. At the top, you'll find that at home, he's using a Dell Precision M90 with the following software on:

• Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn
• VMWare Workstation 6 Beta
• OpenOffice.org 2.2
• Automatix2
• Firefox 2.0.0.3
• Evolution Groupware 2.10

I'm impressed, his software is even more up-to-date than mine!
