Framework laptops also ship without Windows if you wish. Certainly nice to save the money for not purchasing an OS license I won't use.
I don't understand people who choose the Windows option, like wtf, make an install USB yourself and activate it using a $2 key from ebay or just crack it using massgrave.dev. Linux is still the best option tho.
Your average Joe Schmoe probably has no idea that different operating systems on a given device are even a thing, they just see them as MacBox™, WindowsBox™, etc, they don't see it as the blank hardware canvas we do. While I'll agree it's trivially easy to install Windows in the way you suggested, that'll completely fly over the average user's head.
But I don't think that these are the people buying a Framework Laptop
Duh, my bad man. Not my day for reading comprehension.
That said, should in the unlikely event Joe Schmoe buy a Framework, my above point could still be relevant.
