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.

| Posted by [JC] on 11-Aug-2002 13:57 GMT | | It's Slashdot. Most of the users can't see past thier shrine to the god that is Linus Torvalds, and will quite happily blow anything that could potentially make MS look bad out of all proportion. |
