They are also coming to the London expo. Won't be long before they sell
Linux-loaded Dells over here. And remember... it's all about _momentum_. Sales
figures will have their pace accelerated. One person buys a Dell, runs Beryl
or whatever, shows it to a friend who recently wiped Vista and went back to XP
SP2...

Yesterday I had dinner with a friend and he knew far too little about Vista (or
how terrible it truly is). Now he knows about Linux and he'll probably
consider it in the future. The fact that Dell sells Linux PCs changed his
perception immediately.
