You can buy PCs from Dell without any M$ software loaded on them. Using Ubuntu just as you mentioned.

They've even carried no Windows PCs at Walmart...a few years ago now. I think they were running Lindows, not sure if that's still around though.

We've got a local custom PC shop that builds and sells Ubuntu boxes as well.

Definitely a good idea, but hardly a new one. I'm sure someone could do nicely, on a small scale if they wanted to target that market.
