They do not list them on the "Home/Home Office" part of their website, but
if you go to the "Small Buisness" choice you can then choose under
desktops or laptops either "Open Source Desktops" or "Open Source Laptops"
 they apparently come loaded with FreeDOS (for free, I think so they can
boot and test them)
