No. Linux laptops come cheaper as Linus is free. One can now get an Alienware for cheaper price and install the *ahem* version of windows after the purchase

Still,Ubuntu that too released by Alienware means---> GNU/Linux is getting recognised amongst the "GAMERS" community--->eventually to get set to so called normal "USER'S" population alongside Windows or only itself.
A Healthy and Mature era of computing + IT....

Big step by a big company
Now the real battle starts between opensource and Microsoft

Woah..This will cost a bomb im sure..

Nice initiative.

At Least 5k cheaper than same laptop with Windows.

Meanwhile in apple land..

The very first thing one needs to do after purchasing this is to install Windows to play real games
