      All machines come with windows pre-installed

      I was curious, so I checked the laptop offers in our local shop aggregator (arukereso.hu)

          Operating system       Number
      
          Windows 10 Home        8
          Windows 11 Home        677
          Windows 10 Pro         23
          Windows 11 Pro         1661
          Windows 11 S           21
          Linux                  74
          macOS                  141
          Chrome OS              5
          FreeDOS                506
          Without OS             679
      

      2390 / 3795 = 62% windows

          I agree, if not by mistake the cheaper FreeDOS, buyers will select the windows preinstall I presume. I was checking if all machines come with windows. Clearly not.

          With what frequency they choose what offering, is a harder question to answer and would give a different distribution. MacOS would be higher, and without os and FreeDOS close to zero.

      Isn’t that what I’m saying? Windows isn’t prevalent because there is one edition of it, but because it’s the default.

      Apparently this is downvote worthy information?
