Sorry Roy, but this is inaccurate (yes I know you're just the
messenger). I've also informed the blogger.
The article was actually *merged* with beer28's other poll, presumably
at his request, since he has made no comment about it:
http://www.dellideastorm.com/article/show/63705/Dell_should_stop_lying_about_preinstalled_Linux
If you read the comments, youâll find the one which indicates the polls
were merged.

This article is considerably more inflammatory and yet remains
unscathed. I haven't read the AUP but it would seem Dell have set quite
a high tolerance threshold on the Blog, probably only censoring certain
swear words etc.
