No, mainly because Dell absolutely refuses to help with anything. When I talk to them about this their inevitable reply is "How will this help us sell xxx more boxes next quarter?" With a company that is this near-sighted, there's not much hope. Don't count on the Dells of the world. It is the LinuxNetworx, LinuxLabs, and cluster-labs.de of the world that think ahead. We just need to find their equivalent in the laptop companies. ron
