It's sufficiently different from MS Windows in look and feel (much more so than KDE, in fact most Windows users don't realise that a KDE desktop isn't a Windows desktop, initially) that it enables DELL to differentiate, in a marketing sense. And it's good solid Linux with lots of ease of use features, and it has a strong commercial backup. I think, all in all, they made a good choice.

Mind you, I'll still replace it with Mandriva, if I get the chance to buy a DELL Linux box.
