I know. It effectively means you pay $211 for Windows
Which is is such a high dollar count that this simply cannot be USD, a theory further corroborated by the time being 24-hour format, which is uncommon in the US.
I was simply curious to what type of dollar it is in the image. Australian, New Zealand, Canadian, something else?

So I haven’t used Windows on my own machines in about 20 years, but back when I built my own PCs that seemed about right. So I looked up the price history, didn’t realize that Microsoft reduced the license prices around Windows 8.
I remember 20 years ago, Windows XP Home was $199 and Professional was $299 for a new license on a new computer. Vista and 7 were similarly priced.
Since Windows 8, though, I just don’t understand their pricing or licensing terms.
$211?!
Surely that can’t be US dollars, that’d be wild. The 24-hour clock also has me thinking this isn’t the US.
Looking at the UK site, I’d 100% go for “No Operating System”, then install Fedora Workstation anyway.
It is -$140 on the US store, the -$211 is probably Australian dollars.
Looks like $140 US
It’s removing 211 dollars from the price

Windows 11 home costs more than $200???
I’m not that surprised. I believe it costs less on itself but there might be a surcharge for installation.
Oh thank you. I didn’t see the tiny
-.211 doll hair?
For getting better support it might be worth it to pay the 25 £.
I guess it would also signal to Lenovo that Fedora laptops are welcomed
