honestly though guys, whatever your dell hardware gets shipped with, whatever flavor (fire resistant hopefully) - you know yourselves you'll be unhappy when it arrives because "dell have tainted it" and you'll reinstall fresh.. so stop whinging about what they're sent out with because at the end of the day, it's of no importance to anyone who'd want a linux laptop/desktop/server - as they'll obviously side with their preferred distro anyway
