That's awesome news.  I, in fact, just had to do a LOT of searching to 
find the right drivers to put XP on a XPS M1330.  They come, in the US 
anyhow, with Vista ONLY and one of our marketing people bought one of 
those and was complaining that his programs wouldn't install on it!

I tried to insist on putting linux on it, but that didn't work. :-)
