If the laptop you like to buy comes with Windows, Only thing you can do is to try to get refund for unused windows. Talk to the vendor and see if it is possible to get refund if you do not agree to Windows EULA. I talked to Dell once and they said "Dont buy laptop if you dont want Windows" :-( But you may be luckier than me ;-) > any thoughts if i can get something without windows on it > i think its a waste of cash, if im getting vista but upgrading to debian > anyway > thats y > > -- Regards, Jain Johny
