Vote to have Firefox pre-installed on Dell systems

Dell has recently placed a topic on their IdeaStorm website, which allows any user to vote for product design choices that will allow Firefox to be pre-installed, and set as the default browser, on all Dell systems, if it becomes popular enough.

If Dell does indeed choose to do this, I wonder Microsoft will react, seeing that now not only will they lose a bit of their Operative System share, but also a part of their browser share.

When my Sony laptop came back from repairs I was very surprised that Firefox and Google Toolbar were already installed. Is this a new start, or a change of tides for Microsoft? Time will tell, I guess.
