Exactly. If dell had to stand behind their warranty for linux they wouldn't be jamming ATI cards into the machines without dragging ATI through a knothole to get the drivers working and easy to install. Someone like Dell does not have to worry about whether the driver is opensource or not. As a system integrator they can install linux and then ADD the non-oss drivers and packages to their hearts content. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
