Folks,

We're just in the process of buying some new hardware.  The people we're 
using have advocated Compaq gear, and we're keen to go with what they're 
offering.  We're intending to use Red Hat on the server, desktop & laptop.

The problem is that on the laptop & desktop lines they can't unbundle 
the Windows OS, and there's no way we can prevent money going to 
Microsoft.  This just isn't acceptable to me.

Has anyone else come up against this?  What vendors are there that are 
free of this lockin?

Julian
