Comment How about selling the Thinkpad without an OS? (Score 1) 367
If they sell me a Thinkpad with no OS installed and with a suitable price reduction there's no problem.
Less work for them, better deal for me, doesn't matter how few they sell. No need for support for an OS the user has installed. Maintains goodwill with the techies who will be interested in buying them ( and maybe ordering the Linux servers in the future ). Everyone is happy.
As it stands, it's a marketing blunder.
