Dell/Microsoft are alliance to each other in terms of money. Dell would depend on what consumers want, if for some reason, people think Firefox is better than IE, Dell would think the same. Ever since Firefox has been out, users tend to use it more than IE or at least research shown that Firefox is getting more and more downloads reaching IE's use. So to say, if the market likes Linux because security is more tightened, users move from Windows to Linux, then Dell would do the same. It's more of a supply and demand. You know the drill.
