It would be nice to see which ones are linux friendly and don't come with Windows preinstalled.

Why does having Windows preinstalled matter? You can always install Linux over it.

Why having Windows pre-installed when you are sure you won't use it? More, it is very rarely an option available to not get it: I would find interesting that it could be opted-out so people with low budget could skip it and pay less.

Because you paid for something you don't need, lining pockets in the process.

Cost, and it'd be nice to know if there is linux compatibility for hardware.

Free-DOS laptop maybe? No extra cost for Windows OS.
