I bought several Dell XPS with Ubuntu preinstalled. I also bought a Tuxedo laptop preinstalled with Linux (sadly the hardware was shit).

There already are companies selling Linux preinstalled, but only the expensive ones.

I think if the Chromebook like computers would come with a normal Linux distro that might make a difference.

i have a Linux Dell at home as well (from work), but it’s just a thin Ubuntu clone with some Dell bloatware. they really could go wild with it with just a few resources. Chromebook is also a good example of what i’m talking about.
