so you want a pc etc with out OS

so jo blogs goes to pc maker for a pc the maker says what OS do you want, as it does not come with any, well jo blogs has only used windows so he goes for it!
But there may be loads of other OS to try he has never tried them as he's not had the chance, or he tries other OS on his system but then says he does not like it, will they change it? for free? will they allow two changes? or if you pick linux etc, and, it does not do what you want are you stuck with it, same goes with windows, But I think M$ know they have made a bad OS in vista and, jo public has got wise to them. we want no more forced upgrades we want to be able to pick what, when, how we update systems no be forced.
