First off, where the hell can you buy a Dell with Linux? On their website ... nope!

Be up-to-date, they start selling them AT THE END OF MAY. The PCs will be cheaper than Windows ones because you don't have to pay the Windows tax.

Microsoft has been on top in the OS market for as long as I can remember ... they'd have to f*ck up pretty badly to fall into second place! Linux, to what I can see, is in last place! Mac is more popular than Linux!

You don't realise, they've been very slowly losing market share without the help of major companies selling Linux preinstalled on computers. Windows has the market share at the moment purely because of the fact they're sold as OEM operating systems on the desktop market. Macs actually have almost the same amount of market share as Linux, by the way.
