Bob,
It appears that they charge only charge $119.00 for Linux preinstalled
which is more then NT, but you pay for NT as well in the price of the
machine. The extra cost only comes when you what to buy their support
plan.
I am " assuming " that the $20.00 fee is cause they have somebody
sitting there installing it...or something stupid like that..heheheh
laters,
