[TCLUG] walmart.com to sell systems without the MS tax

[Terry Houle]

I dislike Wal-Mart a lot also and don't want to steer business their way.
But when the trade off is Linux or Wal-Mart I would probably lean toward
using them to promote the Linux even if they do benefit.  Also I  would hope
as Wal-Mart goes so goes the rest of the retail world.
