Windows [Rule] - eviltoast
  • Fun fact: Lenovo sells some laptops without Windows license too. The amount saved will depend on the laptop and region. Unfortunately this isn’t available for all laptops.

    Example:

    If you’re just buying a laptop/desktop normally, you’re paying this without realizing it.
    In this case, it’s 22.5% of the price.

      Wish more did that tbh…esp as a tech person who MS and apple ran off with choices they made. Plus I like having more freedom on shiz to customize things more without risk it’ll break that easily(without a major yearly update withstanding but still not as often as windows…)

      Skimmed the US site. Unless I’m dumb, there’s no Non-Windows Key options on any products other than a Linux-variant that they currently up charge for.

      What a shithole company.
