Pre-Installed Linux Tops Dell Customer Requests

dhart writes "Within only a few days of Dell opening a new customer feedback website, they discovered that the feature most requested (by an almost 2-to-1 margin!) is an option on all new Dell PCs: pre-installed Linux. (And the number 3 request is pre-installed Open Office.) I believe they'll have a harder time now with the tired old mantra 'There's no customer demand for Linux.'"

Look at most "ghetto" folk in the US. It doesn't matter where they're from. Most normal Americans can't understand a damn word those people are saying. Even the ones who have made something of themselves, be it in sports or music, are nearly impossible to understand. It's one thing to use slang now and then. But when you hear them talk in TV interviews, you might actually understand a small handful of the words they're saying. And this is coming from people born to American parents, and raised in American cities like Detroit, LA, NYC, and Atlanta.

Well, here's our winner of the Nudge, Nudge, Wink, Wink Award for Racist Blather today. Poor thing just can't understand all those, um, athletes. From, you know, Detroit.
