Naked PCs
[tag]Naked PCs[/tag] are personal computers sold without an Operating System (OS) installed.
Dell offers n-Series desktops and laptops
that are shipped without any operating system. If you happen to buy any of these “Open Source” Dell Systems, the first thing you would want to do is install an OS in order to boot the system. (The [tag]Dell n Series [/tag]desktops have a non-formatted hard drive ready for OS installation.)
This could be a good way to go for existing owners of Windows XP/Vista or even Linux fans who love Dell machines but hate shelling out that extra money for the Microsoft OS which they will probably never use.
