This quick Vodcast captures thoughts from Dell's:

Coming Soon
In addition to the Vodcast above, I’ll be back soon with an in-depth blog entry describing Dell’s Linux strategy (servers, desktops and mobile) in greater detail. In fact, the blog entry will answer many of the questions WorksWithU readers submitted here.
Follow WorksWithU via Identi.ca, Twitter and RSS (available now) and our newsletter (coming soon).
Joe, I can’t watch the vodcast from here. But just FYI:
I clicked on the RSS Feed on my Firefox feed reader, and got directed to this page:
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/workswithu/~3/zSfBB4D-ccc/

There was an internal error retrieving this feed. The FeedBurner support team has been notified.
Error 500

Leo: Sorry about that brief Feedburner problem. Glad to hear Google/Feedburner fixed it quickly for WorksWithU’s reders.
YES! I Love it! Thank you. I hope to get on that team someday!
Dallas: Tell me more. I saw your Myspace site and it seems like you’ve got an intense focus on Ubuntu. Tell us more. Thanks.
