I have an Inspiron and it works great under linux. Dell is starting to do a
better job as far as supporting linux (unoficially). While they won't
provide direct technical support for Linux related issues, they do provide
linux drivers etc. I know the 8000 can come preloaded with Red Hat as well.
Good luck. Enjoy your new system!
