Gee maybe because every manufactured PC comes with a M$ OS already installed. And they get $$ for it regardless if the user wiped the hard drive and installed something else. The only company I see not doing this Dell, but there offering aren't all that great.
If other companies grew some balls and started to offer alternative OSes I think the landscape would change. But until then they won't because they don't train a bunch of Indians to actually solve computer problems instead a reading a script.

Evry single anything that can be done on the phone is sent to India because all they did was train a bunch of people to read scripts and not really fix computers because they work cheaper. When all the support was in the US I could 1. have a chance of getting some-one when knew what they were talking about. 2. Wasn't blantly obvious they were reading a script. 3.Could talk to a supvisor, know you ask for a super the idiot hang-up on you. 4. Not have them repeat themselves 4-5 times because I can't understand their "english".
Did I go tad to far with that comment, maybe, I don't think so tho. Just trying to make a point that that most PC companies don't give a *. They make BS deals with M$ to make a POS $300 PC. They need to grow some balls and attempt to make a better product. Not cheaper.

It has nothing to do with Balls and everything to do with the fact that there is no demand for it. People want windows. The people that don't won't typically go through Dell to buy a computer. |

Then if there isn't demand then why even bother offering it at all huh? Apparently there is. They need to expand their offerings.
