Besides the windows tax aspect there is also the aspect of a vendor taking a bit of responsibility around what the user experience (hardware support etc) is like when running linux on their hardware. Offering an option for shipping with linux seems to serve as a catalyst for that.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 7y agoI'd be a little surprised if that actually happens. Most likely they're shipping Linux for webdevs and people who want to avoid the Windows tax, neither of which they'll care much about supporting.
