Shopping for a laptop as a Linux user:
Screenshot from the Simpsons where Otto is talking to Marge and Homer standing next to a window in their house with a caption "Oh wow, windows!... I don't think I can afford this place."
I build computers and sell them, and will put whatever OS you want on them, except Windows. If you want windows, I take $150 off the price of the tower.
I'm a developer, modder and privacy advocate, I know how to put a custom OS on my hardware, but I'm a minority.
However the average joe does not,
and they, the majority,
are forced into using spyware.
Often without them even knowing so,
which is a true issue
You give a discount if people use windows?
I don't have to install anything, and you're getting a machine with a BIOS, but no OS. I tell my customers up front that I'm not going to put Windows on, though I am looking into the legality of possibly offering Tiny10, but that looks questionable.
I'm not going to charge for work I didn't do.
