I would think the chances are exceedingly small of you a) finding 
someone at Dell who actually knows this, and b) getting the information 
out of them.

The problem is not so much to do with the ability to choose the 
appropriate VID#, it is more about working out *which* VID# to choose. 
If someone could address the latter question, I'd be more than happy to 
have a shot at the former.
