Comment 324 for bug 1

100% reproducible in India, I recently wanted to purchase a laptop, but without a MS OS, 99% of the laptops available had one, and only very low end ones were available with Linux. So I contacted Dell, Lenovo and HP and told them that if I purchase a laptop from them, what are the procedures that I should follow for a refund of the cost of the MS OS if I don't wish to use it. (The EULA clearly states that my vendor is legally obliged to refund the amount to me, if i do not wish to use the bundled OS). The only reply I got was "Sorry, sir, but we are not offering this service". When I told them that they are legally bound to do it, they told me they are not aware of it. Dell was audacious enough to tell me that they are not running any such promotion, and I was like what the hell damn it, i am not asking for a discount or something it is my legal right. Maybe I will settle with something like N100 (a35), one of the very few laptops with dual core processors and without a bundled MS OS.
