Microsoft have cracked down on retailers trying to sell alternate OS's when they sign a contract to sell Windoze. (This theoretically effecting people selling Amithlon pre-installed, or the likes). Essentially saying... : (from slashdot.org) "Some Sys Admin sent in an email that he got from Dell which basically says Microsoft will no longer allow Dell to sell PCs without an operating system. " - But if you think this was only Dell, the wording seems to effect all retailers, read article for more information: http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/08/10/1420208.

In reply to Comment 24 (DaveW):
Well hope no one about an Amiga because of AMOS, if any thing Blitz Basic is allot better, well Amos was the fastest basic program that you could get on Amiga, before BlitzBasic, blitzbasic can compile basic code to assembler, Amos just make bundles the runtime environment with optimised basic binary mode, how ever it was possible to add modules that where optimised in Assembler in Amos basic and blitz basic, in Amos there was an possible to add assembler code with out exec header to ABK bank, and run it from there to.
AMOS where not system friendly, BlitzBasic has an system friendly mode Amiga mode and an non system friendly Blitz mode.
