Random Dell techies might. If you've got specific demonstrable BIOS bugs
in modern Dell laptops make sure the Dell Linux folks get them but in an
easy to reproduce form, or with a fix. If you can get something through
to the Dell BIOS people my experience so far is that it actually gets
fixed. Getting something that far into Dell is "interesting"
