Dell ship Linux laptops. Just get one of those.

I chatted with Dell pre-sales today and they confirmed that the laptop I want is not available with anything other than 3 different flavours of Vista. There is no option to have it pre-installed with XP and there is no option to have the laptop supplied sans-OS.

Which is just plain ridiculous if you ask me. Whatever happened to giving the customer what they wanted?
