[LUG] Dell Windows licence refund

 

Hi folks,

I thought some of you might find this interesting if you're looking to 
buy a new machine.  A guy on the Ubuntu-UK mailing list recently bought 
a Dell Inspiron 15 notebook and wanted to get a refund for Windows.  All 
he had to do was call the Dell UK Customer Services line, explain that 
he couldn't agree with the Windows EULA and they refunded the cost of 
Vista.  Not sure exactly how much of a refund he got but it's 
something.  Supposedly he didn't even have to send anything back.

There's more about how to get a refund here:
