Not true. I've checked this out several times in the past when I've
heard it.

The Ubuntu laptops always seem to be about £30 cheaper than the ones 
with Windows for the same spec. Total price difference at the moment 
is only £10 but they won't sell you a windows laptop without 1GB of 
RAM so you have to upgrade the 512MB Ubuntu offering with an expensive 
£30 Dell upgrade, the very same upgrade is available from crucial for 
£9.98 inc vat and delivery. 

The main problem with Dell is that you only get a subset of their
products offered with Ubuntu.
