Lots of stories about last July about Dell stopping selling Ubuntu
systems via their website, but that you could call and get them
over the phone. Did you call them Margaret?

I see that dell.fr seems to list ubuntu (and FreeDOS!) as an
option on most (all?) of their laptops, but when you go through
to 'Personnaliser' your selection, you get the usual choice of
Windows 7 (heh, "Système d'exploitation" indeed).
