they come with Turbolinux , cleansing is happening for there own ulterior motive they think the customer is a cow whom they can milk multiple times if they have windows installed rather than Linux.
I am not sure whether such an activity should be ignored by the Linux community in India. Yes, this has been reported before [1] in the international press.well think twice they think with Linux the customer will not come back to them for getting virus cleaned , HDD formatted and pretty other mundane reasons for which actually they charge.There has to be a way where in the vendors gets educated with Linux support model and earns a living supporting it otherwise this will continue to happen.
Actually this might not always be true. I have seen the backoffice "software guys" of these outfits actually quite frustated with customer complaints like repeated windows installations every few months, driver problems, virus attacks(actually worm attacks where anti-viruses are quite ineffective), etc.
Ofcourse, when the customer purchases an AMC, these people wont have a problem. ;)
