Dells involvement is no suprise of mine take a look at these figures for computers from my 500 computer profile research:

Custom: 192
Dell: 84
HP: 32
IBM: 26
Compaq: 16
Acer: 18
Asustek: 9
Fujitsu: 8
Via: 8
Gateway: 7
Sony: 6
Lenovo: 5
Apple: 2
ECS: 2

(some are missing because the bios is corrupt or just never imported correctly)

But still, 84 compared to the next pre-built machine from HP of 32, Dell is already a long way in the Linux market so this makes total sense for them.
