This is fantastic news.  I am going to recommend friends and family to
purchase Dell computers with Ubuntu pre-loaded.  Hopefully Dell can
help Linux gain enough market share to force software vendors to take
notice.

Yesterday I installed Feisty Fawn on an older Dell Pentium 4 box with
an Intel on-board graphics card, and everything works, even the compiz
eye-candy, without any extra tweaking.
