Dell was in the news of making publicity for Ubuntu and from what I
have read (mixed with a little interpretation), I would say, that
Microsoft threatened them to increase Windows license prices for them.
That would make the Dells preloaded with Windows more expensive. So I
guess this is why they stopped.

However, I will let you know - I am going to buy a Dell within the
next month (and I have two Dell Notebooks + a server at a friend
bought within the last 1,5 years and none of them ever seen Windows.
