        OTOH, DELL will gladly sell you a beefed up PC running Linux
and 60K per cpu server software. They will even stake their own 
reputation on it.

        Much like a Diesel F-350, Linux is a workhorse system that
the average consumer likely has no appreciation. Even if it is an
Eddie Bauer variant.
