I find it interesting there's so much hoopla about Dell and Linux.  I 
guess it's about workstations not servers, 'cause at my last employer we 
were delivered a couple of Dell systems with RH7 installed (5 years 
ago?).  Not a special order, but an off the shelf package.  While their 
engineers were probably not as familiar with Linux as Windows, we never 
had a problem with their support.  They gave us enough info to solve all 
the problems we had.
