Dell Outsmarts Microsoft!

The PC maker next month will introduce n-Series corporate desktop and
workstations that ship without Microsoft's Windows, or any other operatin=
g
system, pre-installed.

The new desktops appear to be a slick interpretation of Microsoft's new
licensing terms and a way to navigate customer demand for PCs without an =
OS
installed. The Microsoft licensing terms, which were put in place on Aug.=
 1,
specify that PC makers must ship PCs with an operating system. The new po=
licy
exists to prevent piracy and to better track OS shipments.

If you listen on a quiet nite you, can hear
the sound of a Windows 2000 Server reboot.
