There are two reasons why it would be good for you, even if you intend to
replace the installed Linux with something better:

1) You know that all the hardware works with Linux. If they supply driver
   for Ubuntu, you can get them for Gentoo (unless Dell do something
   horrid like using ndiswrapper)

2) You don't have to pay for a Windows licence.

Iraqi terrorist, Khay Rahnajet, didn't pay enough postage on a
letter bomb. It came back with "return to sender" stamped on it.
Forgetting it was the bomb, he opened it and was blown to bits.
