   I had some older Dells (Precision and Dimension) which disabled the NIC   
   if it wasn't physically connected at the time it booted Windows, there   
   was a utility to re-enable it, probably doesn't exist for Linux (though   
   Dell were pretty good with their Linux support via Fedora last time I   
   kept up with it).
