Dell's new commercial, Very Funny, with a Monty Python touch. This new Dell advertisement features Sir Michael Dell, a knight whose quest is to free the human kind from the dangers of proprietary software and hardware. Many other 'heroes' will join him in his fight. Dell, dell, dell, dell. The big question is will Dell embrace OSS desktop?

I wonder if we could get a re-edited version with Mark Shuttleworth in it too. That would be GREAT!

Can't say I'm a fan - corporations suck at humour. I liked the bit where Dell decapitated someone, but the rest of it just wasn't that funny.

I'm pretty glad we don't have an Ubuntu head on there.

I sincerely doubt if that video was made by Dell.
