Well, to be fair, Linux installation experiences usually differ 
extremely between product generations. Maybe the next Dell laptop 
will make it very easy to install Linux...

Also, you have to take into account the huge differences between 
servers and laptops. Maybe Dell does some more for its corporate 
customers than for their end-users. Servers are usually not as 
integrated as a laptop and so you're not as dependant on, for example 
(since this is our issue right now) the Video BIOS. So your 
experience on servers doesn't neccesarily relate to what it's like on 
a notebook.

Best,
