I wonder if the sell OS-less laptops, so you can install what you want?
This sounds great, but as always the devil is in the details. Any modern computer has dozens of different components and parts which all need to have proper OS support -- graphics, wifi, obviously; and visible things like fingerprint readers, cameras; but also power subsystems, controllers, bunch of other stuff.
If you buy an OS-less system, you've got no idea that _any_ OS will work with the components that make up that system.
