Don't you have to do that anyway if you install Windows yourself?
If you're getting a prebuilt (which most people do) then drivers will be preinstalled.
Well, same if you had Linux pre-installed.
Unfortnetly, very little hardware comes with Linux preinstalled.
Let me present you with a few:
Lenovo (can deliver with both Ubuntu and Red Hat Enterprise)
HP (specify distro in order)
Dell (Specify distro in order)
System76
Slimbook
Tuxedo Computers
I just checked Lenovo from Google Search. I only checked the British site, but if you select "No OS" instead of Windows 11 Home, it's -90£ (115USD)!
Holy hell! I didn't realize Windows license makes up such a big part of the price.
Now I wonder how much of the price it could be with the cheap Umax laptops sold in Czech republic and Slovakia. They start at €130 with Windows Pro license.
I believe Windows license cost change based on GDP of the country where it's sold. So might not be the same savings, unfortunately.
Lenovo also have Red Hat Certified on alot of their computers, which mean every component will work with RHEL.
