How IdeaStorm Works:
Bring More Support positions to North America Service and Support submitted by johnsteffens Feb 11 I know for the sites in Canada that this post is far too late but people do not want to speak to individuals whose primary language is not English. This makes communication difficult for several reasons, the person calling in cannot understand the support personal the support personnel may not understand what the caller is stating and there are also large social differences that affect the way people from different cultures interact. I myself have work for Dell in their Edmonton location in the Dell on Call Department and myself have had difficult times conducting a conversations with people in other departments. Also many Dell customers are not aware of the correct terminology for what they are trying to reference and thus making it more difficult to understand what they are trying to get across, this would be a much harder task if your grasp on the language was not 100%. 1 Comment » Let me replace the Windows Key for a Linux key in the keyboard Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Linux submitted by silencer Feb 12
It would be nice to be able to change the windows key for a linux key when you build your machine. Every linux user would love that! :) Dell Web Site submitted by ajmukon Feb 12
This idea is simple. Provide more processor options for linux desktops Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Desktops, Linux submitted by rebresb Feb 13 Only one Linux desktop model is available (Inspiron 530N) and only one processor choice exists for it (dual core 2160). This CPU is a low-to-moderate performance choice; it is near the lowest offering in the Windows line-up. While Linux clearly out-performs Windows on modest hardware, the choice of Linux doesn't merely reflect a cost-savings and performance-optimized decision. Users may want the choice of high-end CPUs for intensive applications with Linux. Windows is not the choice of those who want high-end equipment; it requires high-end equipment to run "well". Linux users seeking peak performance will thus want fast processors. (Note that the most/fastest supercomputers run Linux). Support for such processors / motherboards isn't an issue for Linux, so certification by Dell shouldn't be difficult (??). The profit margin is likely higher on these CPUs (??), so that should be attractive. So why doesn't Dell include fast Intel or AMD offerings such as quad-core, 64 X2, core 2 extreme, etc.? 6 Comments » Linux, Operating Systems, Service and Support submitted by capnskyler Feb 13

Hello, Allow for any Linux Flavor + Windows Multi boot system Operating Systems - Multiboot submitted by kutsa Feb 14 Their should be an option to have multi-boot system. Within the selector you should be able to select multiple Operating systems and the partitions required. This way someone, for example, could select WinXP and Ubuntu and SUSE. 5 Comments » New Product Ideas submitted by badblood Feb 14
Trackpads are terrible, they lack accuracy, they get in the way, you are always accidentally touching them, they seem to have minds of their own. I for one really hate track pads. I've put up a couple of ideas to replace them with thumbsticks and mini joy sticks, while others offered ideas for little mouses that pop out of the side of the computer. But there's no joy there and they've all been voted down. Dell: BACK the Net Neutrality Bill! Dell, Education submitted by phubert Feb 15
This is an initiative that will protect the FREEDOM of Dell and its CUSTOMERS. Sales Strategies, Service and Support submitted by jdavid.net Feb 15
As a volume manufacture, Dell has the ability to really drive the price down, and they also know what it takes to produce a project. They could really be a great leader in a growing trend to produce open hardware projects. Sales Strategies submitted by ellipsis Feb 14 Place a link to the Live CD when there is a choice for Linux. Allow people to try Linux before they buy it. Dell should also note that your Ubuntu is "enhanced" because of the DVD features it is now offering. 2 Comments » Get GNU/Linux Machines in Retail Stores Linux submitted by dpic Feb 14 Imagine how successful Dell's Ubuntu offering could be if just one Dell Ubuntu machine was put in retail stores. If people knew of an alternative to Windows, they would go for it! So what do you say, Dell? Why don't you try to put at least one of your Ubuntu machines offered in retail stores? 734 Comments » INCLUDE a KUBUNTU INSTALL CD with each Ubuntu system sold! Linux submitted by phubert Jan 15

Linux is greener than Vista submitted by apokalypse Jan 13 maybe feature an R.G.B mixer or a pattern maker for notebooks specially the m1330 1 Comment » submitted by axbhalla Jan 24
Dell should come up with a superior, stylish XPS laptop that uses top of the line energy efficient batteries, smart power saving, high processor performance at very low votage, and perhaps include a donation toward the purchase of carbon offsets to make the Dell Green Laptop officially carbon neutral.  track my votes
