Intel announced two models of the Intel Compute Stick, one with Windows and one with Ubuntu. For unknown reasons, Intel decided to make the Linux version a little less powerful, so people are thinking of buying the Windows version and just install Linux on it. As it turns out, it's not that simple.
When Intel made the announcement, a few months back, many users said that they don't care about the few bucks they are saving with the Linux version, they will just buy the Windows one, delete the OS and install any Linux they want. It might sound good on paper, but in reality they would lose the warranty for the products.
