I wonder why not that many people do this. And those that do usually only give you Ubuntu and nothing else.

I mean, there's the Slimbook and all, but shipping to my country is more expensive than a US cable subscription for one month.

    Because do they sell Linux laptops, Microsoft can simply charge them more for Windows liscences

    So I guess the Linux options that aren't Ubuntu simply get thrown out the windows because of this (pun massively intended)?

    I simply don't ever recall seeing a different Linux distribution on laptops sold by da big bois. It's usually the smaller companies like Slimbook and Kubuntu Focus. Why? Idk, I'm probably just misinformed. If that's the case, there's this arrow pointing down button. Go ahead, press it.

    Why do I keep asking for downvotes?
