elsewhere's point still stands.

The Canonical support one can buy with a Dell PC is aimed at individual consumers, not at businesses.

There is a reason why Dell currently doesn't have Linux PCs in its business section and why the respective request is ranking quite highly on IdeaStorm.

Right now, Novell and Redhat have a larger network of support partners which can handle support for the customers HP is aiming at
