pre-installed = bloatware

Recommend it on the Dell website, but not pre-install it. At least, not for me, thanks :)

Offer it as an option.

Hey, the real reason this is not going to get done is because Dell has a deal with Microsoft that compel them to install either Office or Works on every machine they sell.

I also believe they have to install Windows on everything except servers.

Otherwise, they don't get the best price from Microsoft for Windows licenses.

@gear: it's been ages since you can buy Latitudes and Precisions without Microsoft Windows ;)
