Dell got very rich and very famous selling computers that run Windows. He knows most of the Linux crowd builds their own boxes and despise the future (DRM). Obviously based onhis actions he cares little for their supposed plight, nor should he.

Well, it's not like he had much of a choice once he got into the business. It was Windows only or go broke.

He should, and does, care about profit. He sees profit in selling preloaded Linux, but won't do it now due to the distro turf wars. RTFA for a change.
