I have been eyeing off several mini “netbook” computers to replace my old laptop. The battery is starting to wear out and a full charge will generally only last an hour now.
The one I wanted was the Dell Inspiron Mini 9 and as I’ve been running Ubuntu for years it was good to not have to pay the “Microsoft tax”. 
Alas trying to order from the US with an Australian account site actually crashes the Dell site! Even trying to “chat” doesn’t work, so I left them a message. They actually called me (to their credit) and told me that there is no market for Linux in Australia.
I find that interesting given that almost all the reviews on their own site complain about the lack of Ubuntu!
I want everyone to do the same and let Dell know there is demand for Linux in Australia.
I have a spare $600-800 that I’m looking at spending soon. (I have an “ideal netbook” post in my drafts I’ll publish when I finalise it…)
Update: I just got an email from Dell telling me my order is about to expire, but when I try and log in it can’t find my account. It must have a confusion somewhere as it wouldn’t let me save my order, but apparently it has.
