Look at what the Project Sputnik people are saying about getting Linux working on the current XPS 13 -- they're working on drivers for various portions of it that don't currently work currently on Linux. (If you install Ubuntu on the XPS 13 today, it will have problems.) It's great that Dell is doing that, it really is. But if they were building a laptop for Linux first, they never would have sourced those components.
