In the past, Dell had expressed interest in selling OS X on their machines; Apple obviously won't let them do it, but Canonical is quite willing.
I seem to recall shortly before they switched to also offering AMD-based products, that Dell was chafing at being an all-Intel all-Microsoft business: Either partner could charge what they wished and Dell would be at their mercy... now Dell has its own distinctive operating system, and AMD systems.
