@Threadbane@newsie.social @frameworkcomputer@fosstodon.org i'm positive you can just order it a DIY and get it with NO OS. That's how I always do it.
I can't imagine any Linux user having an issue with getting a laptop with no OS because most people will install their own anyway

@codemonkeymike@fosstodon.org @frameworkcomputer@fosstodon.org Installed my first Linux, version .98, downloaded to 12 diskettes in 1993. I wrote the Datek CD driver for that pre-release. I have wiped Micro$haft off a few dozen systems I’ve bought over the years, replacing it with Red Hat, Debian, Mint, Free BSD, etc. I’m 83 years old. I thought maybe, just once, I would not have to deal with it, not have to spend hours downloading, verifying, installing…I though for ONCE somebody at framework would spare me that. Wrong.
