At work I just got a  DELL Quad Core Duo  with Red Hat pre-installed.

There are a few Dell drivers in a dell directory you need to remember to save off ( in case you rebuild they are not present on any CD I got ) but they do a pretty good job of knowing when to rebuild ( Kernel updates and all ) . Drivers for sound, network, video, RAID Card ( I got SAS RAID 0 and DUAL monitors it all works great ). The only thing Id point out is it needs a floppy to load RAID drivers if you rebuild and I didn't order with a floppy so had to Temp put one in.

So far its been rock solid and blazing fast. I Run Red Hat WS4 and Windows XP & Vista on VMware and even under heavy work loads I don't notice any slowdowns or stutters.

Due to the overwhelming requests on the IdeaStorm website, it looks like Dell has been pushed into selling their computer with Linux installed.
