I'm feeling a bit ambivalent about your IdeaStorm idea. Good luck with it, though.

the duplicates make it almost unusable, however, its a great start.

If only Dell would look at the Ideastorm site and maybe leave some feedback so we know they were there. Better yet clean up the place its a mess with all the duplicate posts.

I visited the IdeaStorm website.

I observed a problem. The voting process is a positive vote. There is no method for casting a negative vote.

Even visiting a topic appears to counted as a positive vote, such that the person reading the topic must be positively interested in the topic.

On the whole, most topics may actually be worthy of a positive vote, or positive interest. But what happens when somebody starts an obnoxiously titled, misleading thread that catches the fancy of IdeaStorm readers?

What if some tightwad starts a topic that wants Dell to only install Pent 1 chips in every computer. Again, readership could boost the topic to a highly read topic, even though the readership truly is only interested in reading the views of a complete idiot.

Dell needs to find a way to offer a reasonable balance of opinions. Everything can not be positive.

I like what you are doing here a lot...in fact, I blogged about it today at www.communitygrouptherapy.com.

I'd "digg" talking to you guys about what you are doing here if you're interested.

Great start!
