Dell to Announce a Preload Agreement with Novell?

Looks like there is a rumor going around that Dell may announce a preload deal with Novell.  From the article:
Dell is expected to announce a partnership Wednesday to offer Novell's SuSE Linux factory-installed on new servers, CNET News.com has learned.
Now, considering that yesterday I got invited to a Dell conference call that is tomorrow morning, I'd say there's a pretty good chance this is true.  I'll post more tomorrow after the call.
