| henomenally successful, Sun alone has shipped more than 70 million

Top 10 things Dell customers want from the company
,----[ Quote ]
| 1. No Extra Software Option. When ordering a PC or laptop, there should
| be an option to get it with none of the assorted rubbishware, leaving
| users to decide what they want to install. Nice.
|
| 2. Pre-installed Linux. Someone wants Dell to offer the top three free
| Linux versions for pre-installation on Dell PCs. While popular, this
| is something few mass-market PC users would care about - but as the
| submitter points out, they might try applications like OpenOffice if
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| Linux came on their new computer.
