Well, either Mikey has seen the light or lost his mind.

First he break away from Intel, now he's peeing on Microsoft. maybe that
explains why the company has been hurting. So will bringing him back be the
answer or has his time passed.

Though I'll say, it's great news. This could be the start of something great
for the Penguin heads

If you look through there, you'll find that he evidently uses ubuntu on
one of his five computers - MS on the others.

Re: Does Michael Dell Use Vista?

That's your justification for using Ubuntu? (-:

Maybe that is why Dell's sales are taking a nose dive lately.

So how many folks who have four computers at home aren't running Linux
on at least one of them? But then again, how many folks have four
computers at home?

Dell has Linux on one laptop, Vista Ultimate on two other laptops and
Vista Ultimate on a XPS system. In addition, he runs Vista Ultimate on
his work machine. So you could say Michael Dell prefers Windows Vista
Ultimate to Ubuntu 4 to 1.

No. I use Linux on all five home computers. I believe one of them is
capable of booting xp, but I don't have the need to do that. I also admin
eight (soon to be ten) Linux computers at the local library - they're used
for public access internet.
