you're being unfair to the OEMs. Particularly HP who are working to get linux on their machines (in Europe anyway):

<a href="http://www.infoworld.com/article/05/05/23/21OPopenent_1.html" title="infoworld.com">http://www.infoworld.com/article/05/05/23/21OPope<nobr>n<wbr></nobr> ent_1.html</a infoworld.com>

However, if eg Dell is told that they will have to pay a higher fee for Windows if they also offer linux, it is understandable that they are slow to take the risk.

They are a business not a charity.
