I totally agree - The whole reason why I'm excited about the idea that Dell
(or anyone else)  supplying PCs with Linux preinstalled is so I will be
guaranteed (hopefully!) to have Linux compatible hardware.  In fact I would
be happy to pay the same price as for the Windows machine for this (I
suspect that the trialware that is installed on new PC subsidises the cost
of Windows in any case).
