You can save yourself $120 by buying a laptop without a windows license and just install Linux on it.
Does windoze really cost that much on a prebuilt system? I thought it was much cheaper.
It doesn't. It's often negligible in an OEM PC. At least, most companies pass very little on to the consumer for avoiding a Windows license.
It does, it's a cost that's added into the final sale of the computer
