This company:-
http://www.novatech.co.uk
quotes lower prices for PCs without windows, but they don't offer
Linux installs as an alternative at the checkout page, just no
operating system at all.
Maybe we could try to persuade them to provide a link to a suitable
open source operating system against the no operating system option.
