Ask HN: Would these laptops sell?

I've owned a laptop repair shop for 6 years now and my customers always keep asking me the same two questions:

1) What kind of laptop do you recommend? I only need it for reading my e-mails, browsing some websites and saving my photos.

2) Can you make my laptop faster?

I am wondering if I could sell laptops that come with a clean copy of Windows? This way they don't contain any bloatware, which makes them faster. To avoid confusing when choosing a laptop (hence the recommendation part), I would offer my customers 3 versions of them.

Basic version (cheap): - E-mail - Browsing - Photos and videos - Word processing

Advanced version (expensive): - All the above - Discrete graphics (Gaming, video editing, image editing, ...) - Bigger screen - Faster processor - ...

Traveler version: - Light-weight - Long-lasting battery - ...

Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
