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.
