There was a digg post recently.. they tried to order a linux box..  it was 50 
bucks more for the box with linux than the box with windows..   so they 
ordered the windows box.. 

So still same as today.. .. order the windows box.. immediately blow it up and 
load linux.. saves you 50 bucks.. 

of course they will stop the program.. and say.. we were not selling enough 
linux boxes to support the program.. Management will not understand why..
