| Dude, you're gonna get screwed by Dell |

Dell, which will not ship most of its desktop machines with a Linux preload, has announced that it now will not sell machines with no operating system. This, the company says, is due to its new contract with Microsoft Corporation. In most cases if you buy a Dell, you buy Windows.
You might be forgiven for thinking that this kind of marketing is impossible, now that Microsoft has been determined in a civil action to be a monopolist engaged in illegal promotion of that monopoly, which finding has been upheld on appeal.
Apparently not.
