"To clarify:  I was saying the effect of listing a piece of hardware as
"certified" that is clearly no longer certifiable due to Dell product
changes, causes a bad experience that reflects bad on ubuntu, even if it
isn't their fault/fair.

I'm just trying to prevent other people from buying the "wrong" laptop
with the expectation it's been pre-vetted for use with Ubuntu 10.x when
it's not."

Without trying to add to the frustration we all have with certain
manufacturers ,at least the Dell has been certified ,so why not engage Dell ,who are obvious forward thinkers ? ,to see what they may do
,or invite them to this list .

This might achieve what no other manufacturer has done ( except maybe hp
& ibm in limited form) to lean on their relationship with nvidia ,which is what is needed to get the optimus working under linux.
