Well, that’s one polite way to tell you to piss off.
Not really.
Think about what they *didn’t* say: they didn’t offer to preinstall
Windows for the customer, or even to include a copy of Windows in the box.
They don’t guarantee that Windows will even work.
So all the risk is up to the customer. It’s up to you to get your own copy
of Windows -- and remember, it can’t be an OEM copy, it’s got to be a full
retail-priced copy. And if it doesn’t work? Can you take your Windows copy
back to where you bought it and demand a refund? Good luck with getting
the shop to understand that there are x86-based machines out there that
are not fully Windows-compatible!
