You just have to admire and honest (Dell) company....

Poking around the 1720, I found this gem:

"Operating System
Genuine Windows Vista®Business 
Bonus-Windows XP Professional downgrade"


At least Dell admits that vista sucks.....


If they'd only put Linux(gentoo) in there 
as an upgrade option, then we'd all
have to really respect (love?) Dell....


cheers!


James
