I fully support Linux and FOSS but, who the fuck pays for windows (not talking about pre installed computers).

[–] [email protected] 17 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I mean you pay for Windows on preinstalled computers, too. There are Laptops sold without OS and they are cheaper than the same model with windows installed.

Yeah, that’s why I mentioned preinstall, as in who would pay for one if they are not forced to?

I get what you mean. I just cant wrap my head around how many people buy windows without even realizing it and think they get it for free or some stuff

I’ve seen people pay for office, usually it was less tech savvy people that had enough money and thought pirating is in fact stealing.
