laptop without windows in Ireland?

jakze

Hi. Anybody knows where i can buy a laptop without windows in Ireland?

The only hassle-free success I've had was with netbooks. I've found that even when the website shows them (like HP a year or two ago when I last looked) it turns out they're not available in Ireland. Anybody tried more recently?

Not sure, But I'm almost positive that if you contact Dell, you can get a bare system without an OS, and install Ubuntu or any other distrobution yourself.

I personally just bought a netbook and have 9.04 running on it.

I'm pretty sure you can get a refund from the manufacturer for the operating system. The person to get onto is Neelie Kroes (http://ec.europa.eu/commission_barro.../index_en.html), she's the competition commissioner for the EU, she'll be able to advise you better.
