Offer No OS Option on all PCs for Home / Small Business Markets

620 points posted to Operating Systems by gear Apr 22

Why not sell PCs with no OS installed and just include the drivers disk for popular OSes that are known to work on it like (XP, Linux, and Vista).

I already have licenses for XP and Linux and I can install my own here.

Having the drivers disk would mean I don't have to download them.

@sniderc600: Yes --> Vostro (+ Latitude & Precision, but that was already the case if you ask not to have that stuff)
