You gain:
1. A better price on an equally specced machine because we buy in bulk.
2. Save time installing and much more importantly testing and making sure everything works out of the box. If you like playing with drivers, then maybe this is not for you (although we might want to hire you!).
3. Get to work faster - choose your distro and software packages on the site when you place your order. A fully customised machine is delivered, so that you can get to work the first time you boot it.
- wpietri 14y agoThis is exactly why I bought a preconfigured Linux laptop. I ended up paying a few hundred bucks over retail to Emperor Linux for a Thinkpad x220 tablet because I didn't have time to screw around with drivers and didn't want to take the risk of having the machine not work at all due to some issue with unsupported hardware. Sadly, they didn't live up to the promises; their support has been terrible. But I think the idea has a lot of merit, and I hope your business goes well!
