Awesome to see dell truly listening to its customers. They've already announced that they'll be pre-installing linux on machines, which was the #1 voted for option on ideastorm. Lets hope pre-installed firefox follows quickly behind.

     Does what it says on the tin!  Most people only use IE because they aren't aware of other browsers - they think Internet Explorer is the Internet!</DIV><BR />What would really drive take up of alternative browsers is if Firefox was pre-installed as the default browser so that when people look for the "Internet" in Windows, they are using FF. <SPAN class="comment_block"> <A href="http://www.ideastorm.com/article/show/62245/Have_Firefox_preinstalled_as_default_browser">195 Comments »</A></SPAN>
