How IdeaStorm Works:
Dell submitted by l-roy 06/11/07
DELL should try to support this project in some way. TheOpenCD.org should be an option for any Dell OS, regardless if Windows or Ubuntu Linux, Operating Systems, Software submitted by jorge 05/26/07
Sales Strategies submitted by badblood 06/10/07 **NOT LIKELY** Allow customers a free, no obligation, home trial of any new Dell system, for 1 month, prior to committing to purchase a new Dell. 14 Comments » Dell buy/invest/advertise in the Dallas Mavericks and/or the San Antonio Spurs Advertising and Marketing submitted by jorge 06/17/07
Dell you need to get your name up in the NBA boards and join the high rollers in advertising in sporting events that are Team oriented to use them for team building strategies for the company. This improves company moral and adds a company outing to raise moral. Dell donate $10-$20 of each Ubuntu computer sale to a worthy cause Linux, Sales Strategies submitted by mistern 06/13/07
Dell should donate US$10-20 of each Ubuntu computer sold to a (Linux-related) worthy cause. Maybe less for emerging and developing countries where price levels are not as high as in the USA. This would have at least the following advantages:
I would gladly donate such an amount (to a worthy cause) if I were to buy a Dell Ubuntu computer! Maybe to the Ubuntu foundation? Otherwise, for a list of top-rated non-software charities, see here. But, as pointed out by jmxz, a Linux-related donation would make much more sense. Another interesting group of people might be the organisation behind Wikipedia. (Somehow related to free software, one might say.) Jorge suggested to "develop bloatware" (for Ubuntu) with the money. [Debatable whether this is a worthy cause.] Please suggest worthy causes in the comments, so I can list them here. 23 Comments » Monitors and Displays submitted by endolith 06/10/07
Invest in companies designing smartpaper displays, so that they can develop really high-quality and fast color versions like LCDs, and then use them in laptops, tablets, and standalone displays. Monitors and Displays, Laptops submitted by alle 06/15/07
Now a days every one wants more screen space, to view all at once, right now we can do this by using the option "Exten my Windows desktop onto this monitor", but it cost more to have more monitor and its fixed we cannot move with Laptop/notebook, wonderign if we can build multiple monitors attached with Left and Right pannel flip models. Provide OPEN Linux drivers for all DELL products! Linux submitted by lucianotolfo 05/27/07 **REVIEWED**
I think it's important for DELL to provide OPEN and FREE Linux drivers for all their products (notboocks, desktops, printers, etc.) to mark the way for other manufacturers, to develop linux drivers too (or they can work together with the linux community to do that) See only Linux compatible components when building your own system Dell Web Site, Linux submitted by frozenfire 05/03/07 It would be nice when building you own system on the Dell site, you can tick a box and then it doesn't show the components that aren't Linux compatible. 3 Comments » Education, Sales Strategies submitted by cnmopt 02/18/07 **ALREADY OFFERED** Similar to Apple, Dell should offer students a special discount on Dell Products. The Apple market share is currently growing in the education sector and offering [college] students a discount would be useful to counter Apple's strategy. 42 Comments » New Product Ideas submitted by badblood 06/13/07

Don't put DRM hardware or software in any Dell should make computer that actually look cool Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Desktops and Laptops submitted by couger 06/18/07 Why is it that no big computer company's e.g Dell ever make their computers look really cool. You always see these computer on the net that have neon fans and see-thru side panels and yet no one in Dell can seem to design one. If Dell made a laptop with like water or gel or something cool in the top then of course i would buy it. If they made a desktop with neon lights and cool colors and other fancy things then of course it would sell. Comment » Operating Systems submitted by javaprog07 02/17/07 **IMPLEMENTED**
Ok, well I know I may be chastised for bringing this up, but vista is still a young operating system with its own problems etc... I would like to see both Home and Business computers, especially notebooks have an XP Home and Pro option on top of Vista until it has at least been out for a year. For those seasoned users like me who just feel that you need to let a new OS mature before jumping right in. I am planning on buying a new notebook, and I would like to insure I wont have to format it on arrival just to have XP. Show all software licenses that apply to the customer before he/she has bought the product Software submitted by mistern 06/10/07
Software has become a central part of modern computing. Being immaterial property, it usually comes with very varying licenses - not without consequences to the customer. I believe that this is vital information that the potential buyer should be able to see before he/she has bought the machine and with the machine, the software included. Remove: "Dell recommends Windows Vista™..." from any publication Advertising and Marketing submitted by tho.meier 02/21/07
It would be nice to see advertising without any Micro$oft, from Dell. I think there is enough advertising for MS from MS it self. IdeaStorm submitted by rthess 06/13/07 From the main Dell site, I could not find idea storm. I had to do a few Google searches just to get here. If I hadn't heard such a request forum existed through other means (not Dell), I'd have never known or found it! 2 Comments » Next step: most systems should have a choice of OS, including Linux Linux, Operating Systems submitted by phubert 05/24/07
