They are only offering Linux on select models, not all PCs...

Pentium
I just went to the site and was unable to configure a d220 system with
Mandrake. If you go through the motions, you'll see that the only availabe
software options include Windows XP Home SP1 and Windows XP Professional
SP1. I'm getting on the phone with HP now and will be trying to find some
answers.
Best,
Adam Kosmin
