"We are at our best when we are hearing directly from our customers," said Dell CEO Michael Dell at the unveiling. "We listen, learn and then improve and innovate on what our customers want. It is one of the real advantages of being a direct company." Dell currently supports Linux on its servers, and offers a set of three desktop computers preinstalled with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.
Dell has launched a Web site where users can submit and vote on ideas for new products and enhancements to older products.
The mechanism behind Dell IdeaStorm is similar to that of social book-marking services such as Digg and Del.icio.us. Users can submit ideas to the service, and other users can vote and comment on those suggestions.
