Which confirms my speculation. Also from the article: "The PC maker next month will introduce n-Series corporate desktop and workstations that ship without Microsoft's Windows, or any other operating system, pre-installed. ... N-series PCs will cost the same as PCs that ship with Windows, a Dell representative said." So by simple logic it must not cost them less to ship without Windows. Edit: I just went back and re-read the article, and realized the portion you quoted was discussing HP machines, not Dell. So it's irrelevant to the discussion we were having about Dell. Sorry I didn't notice that quicker. Charles Tutt (SM)
