I recently switched from Macbook Pro to X1 Carbon. I would have loved to have Ubuntu installed on it and everything working. I would happily pay USD 100 to Levono or someone else to install a clean Ubuntu image.

Majority of my work happens in browser, shell and Intellij so I would not care much about anything else. Windows is too crappy at this point IMO.

I don’t imagine there are many users that would be willing to pay more for a laptop preinstalled with a Linux distro.

The Windows license is still valuable even if all I do with it is run a couple programs in a VM. Some people might bite for a discount but it seems silly to pay more!
