There is some directive out there that states that a
company cannot force
you to buy windows with a pc/laptop. No time to research it at the moment
though.
I haven't read that one, but read some stuff on brent's website regarding this
topic.
Unfortunately, they say nothing about the pricing.
Dell was
offering a system without windows, but they wanted more for it than one
with windows pre installed.
pfff...ok
