Dell Ubuntu Systems apparently $50-100 cheaper than Windows equivalents :)

Dell announced that they would be selling their Ubuntu systems
starting TODAY @4PM CST:

The hardware details won't be released until they go on sale, but if
my calculations are correct, the Ubuntu systems Dell will be selling
in the US will be $50-100 US cheaper than their Windows equivalents:

Windows XPS 410:$899

Windows Dimension E520 "Versatile Multimedia": $679
Ubuntu Dimension E520n: $599
