in Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.

Since when has the best way to obtain a PC for gaming been pre-builts/laptops?
Yeah you can buy good and cost-effective pre-assembled and pre-configured machines from some system integrators...
But if you're assembling a desktop, as you should, then you're installing the OS, too. It's not that outlandish, and a valid aspect to evaluate.
There are companies that do prebuilt PCs around here. Heck, the prebuilt thing doesn't usually cost anything, you just point out the components you like and you get charged just for them, while getting the full assembled PC from them. Most of them will even allow you to give them components not purchased from said company, to put in the build. Even old (used) components.
Did you not read my second paragraph? What are you telling me that I don't know, exactly?
You phrased it differently, I'm sorry, I'm not a native English speaker, I didn't get that you meant the same thing.
