No; Canonical has no agreement with Microsoft.

Also note that according to this article:
http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/business/314604_software07.html
Dell is selling Red Hat systems right now (e.g. see
http://www.dell.com/redhat) and will continue to do so...

It sounds like Dell is trying to expand its sales to as many corners
as possible.

BTW, http://www.dell.com/suse directs to the new deal just as
http://www.dell.com/ubuntu directs to to the 'coming soon' message.
