Google/Dell personalized homepage
If you look at the Dell Start Page, a Google/Dell personalized homepage, you'll see a module called "My Dell." Looks like Dell wrote their own Google Module. That's pretty neat if you ask me. Not because it's terribly difficult to write a Google Module, but because they're one of the first companies I've seen to have a webpage based on google.com/ig. At time of posting, I only know of two: Dell, and Current Communications.
Interestingly, to personalize the Dell Start Page, you must sign in with a Google account, but to personalize the Current Communications Start Page, you must sign in with a Current account. The Current sign-in page looks awfully familiar:

What other companies have a personalized homepage? Who will get one in the future?

I inadvertently have triggered the Dell-Google personalised home page and wish to remove it, however it overrides my own preferred home page.
Neither Dell nor Google have responded to my requests for information on how to eliminate this unwanted intrusion.
What happens when you go to: www.google.com/ig
? Does that redirect you to the Google/Dell page?
I needed to help a friend with his Dell home page from my place, and www.google.com/ig/dell let me sign in to his page from my place.
