The funny thing in The Netherlands is: in the rare case that you can buy a pc preloaded with Linux this is more expensive than the same pc with WinXP.

I have seen laptops for about 1500 Euro with WinXP that are around 1700 Euro if you want it preloaded with Linux...

How's that for a Windows piracy aide?
