I have the same experience from here. So, I tried it on the windoze 
laptop, where it come up just fine. The irony is that it is promoting 
Dell PCs preloaded with Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSuse, WinXP, or Vista, with 
multi-boot options.

I just tried it again here (SimplyMepis 2.6.15-23-386) dropping the 
"/article/61771" and I didn't have Firefox go "out to lunch".  So if you 
want to try again, http://www.dellideastorm.com/.
