How IdeaStorm Works:
Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Laptops submitted by hardway 08/30/07 Many of us have seen personal USB cooling fans that clip on or can be positioned by the user to blow air on to them. These are great idea but no one needs another device to carry around with their laptop, no matter how small it is. On the next generation of Dell laptops a pop-up "bank" of cooling fans could be integrated in to the case of the display. Something like 3 or 4 slim PC cooling fans would be perfect. Offer variable speed controlled by the user within the software (think Windows volume control) able to run any one or all of the fans. On airplanes, in restaurants, at the office, outside, and many other locations, a small custom steady breeze is priceless. 5 Comments » Ubuntu Beryl, Have it be an Option Linux, Software submitted by daniel117 08/17/07

For those who have advocated Ubuntu on Dell systems, here's a VERY PRACTICAL endorsement Linux, Sales Strategies submitted by daniel117 08/19/07 **IMPLEMENTED**
I think Dell should do more with Ubuntu to optimize the whole OS for Dell computers. Linux, Desktops and Laptops submitted by nkmhutirv 08/19/07
I would like to see Ubuntu laptops & desktops coming to more countries in Europe. Stop moving *Backwards* in your Linux progress - return the NVidia graphics option. Inspiron products, Linux, Laptops submitted by jmxz 08/16/07
During the first 2 days of your Ubuntu sales you didn't offer any accelerated graphics options on Ubuntu laptops. After numerous Ideas requesting the addition, and phone calls to your sales guys as well (I know I made at least one) the option was added and I even posted an idea thanking you for having the option on the day I ordered one. There should be an option of having no trialware on all computers Software submitted by jervis961 08/23/07 **REVIEWED**
Here is a news article about trialware and how Dell feels that regular customers want it but small business ones do. Do they not look at the ideas here? Offer Ubuntu on the XPS M1330 laptop Linux, XPS products, Laptops submitted by technikal 06/26/07 **PARTIALLY IMPLEMENTED**
Offer the coolest OS on your coolest laptop. I'd be great to buy such a cool laptop knowing ubuntu would work flawlessly on it. Maybe even add Beryl into the default install so that the graphics on the screen were as nice to look at as the laptop itself. I'd even take a dual-boot with Vista - just something to assure me that on the system is Linux ready. Fix the nVidia 8600M/8400M GS driver so it will install on retail versions of Vista. Dell Web Site, Operating Systems, Vostro products submitted by kalstolyn 08/25/07
I recently installed a retail copy of Vista Ultimate on my brand new Vostro 1500 (it came with Home Basic preinstalled, because who wants to pay for an OS we already own!) and I ran into a few issues. Windows Vista ULTIMATE Upgrade + Zune Bundle Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Sales Strategies, Software submitted by reg 03/24/07
Windows Vista Ultimate Upgrade + Zune Bundle: $299
Dell, make a deal with Microsoft to offer promotional bundles, rebates, etc. to clear out this inventory of Vista boxes and Zune equipment. 45 Comments » Dell recommends, Ubuntu, like did with Windows Vista! Dell Web Site, Linux submitted by oagostinho 05/29/07 I'll be very glad if Dell recommends Ubuntu too, like do with Windows Vista! Why not? Think about it! Ubuntu is the best open-source operating system out there for us!! See Ya!! Orlando Agostinho, Computer Engineer, Lisbon/Portugal 25 Comments » All versions of Vista for Inspiron laptop series (All laptops) Operating Systems, Laptops submitted by saleemohaib 08/25/07
I was recently checking out the new and beautiful Dell Inspiron 1720/1721 and saw that no Vista Ultimate is offered. I think it would be a good idea to offer all versions of Vista for customers to chose from. Including the 64bit Vista Ultimate for customers who want to but a laptop with 4GB of RAM. Operating Systems submitted by kenjennings 06/14/07 It's been out long enough for everyone to realize its a dog. It makes Dell's perfectly good, new computers run like old computers. It's buggy, expensive, unintuitive, and provides no worthwhile practical features. The people who die for eye candy are probably using Macs already. The power users who know (or want to know) how to get close to their computers use Linux. So, about all that's left are gamers -- and Vista isn't wonderfully compatible as a multi-gigabyte boot loader for games. The only real reason to keep Vista is fear of Microsoft. 37 Comments » Operating Systems submitted by donutfinn 04/07/07 Stop selling outdated XP and upgrade all XP computers to Vista. 8 Comments » Edubuntu pre-installed for kids and teens maybe even school Education, Linux, Operating Systems submitted by kevintrooper 08/07/07

I would like to buy a desktop with a Quad Core processor (Intel Q6600 for example). TV Commercial for New Ubuntu PCs Advertising and Marketing, Linux submitted by josmar52789 05/03/07 Dell should produce a new commercial for the Ubuntu PCs. It could tell the consumers of America why Dell has chosen to pre-install Linux on mainstream computers and hopefully promote the advantages of this new endeavor. Plus, it's likely that Dell's Linux initiative would be much more successful. 117 Comments » Ubuntu PCs need more video card options Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Linux, Desktops and Laptops submitted by nkmhutirv 06/13/07
