That is absolutely absurd. They might not even officially support it in terms of phone service, etc. Frankly you've not even used a Linux machine in the year because they've become increasingly easy to use! Ubuntu is ALMOST to the point of point and click use. Also, your beloved Microsoft machines is more expensive than a Linux machine. As for "screwing up the system": I'll gladly do my part to remove the monopoly that is in place.
Also, this will win Dell customers, because it isn't alienating their current customers, just widening the range of their audience. The fact is I would have never previously considered a Dell, as they are overpriced for their proprietary hardware, but with the recent addition of a Linux variant of Dell machines that are available I will gladly buy a Dell.
