I mean you pay for Windows on preinstalled computers, too. There are Laptops sold without OS and they are cheaper than the same model with windows installed.
Yeah, that’s why I mentioned preinstall, as in who would pay for one if they are not forced to?
I get what you mean. I just cant wrap my head around how many people buy windows without even realizing it and think they get it for free or some stuff
