You know... if Dell marketed how the Ubuntu system came with everything (Office, Web, etc. etc.) without the need for extra cash, that you could add some more stuff with a few clicks (main menu -> add/remove command), and have a pretty and customizable GUI (for the 'bling' of the OS), then they might be able to drag them away from Windows while Norton is still scanning for viruses.

That's just theory though.
