Getting A Refund for Unwanted Microsoft Windows
,----[ Quote ]
| I strongly encourage people to do this.
| Sometimes it will work, and you will get some
| money back, but often it won't, and you will
| either be ignored, or you will be told, as I
| have been, that if you don't accept the license
| agreement, your only option is to return the
| entire computer for a refund. But either way,
| it makes some noise and if enough people do it,
| perhaps some OEMs will start to pay more
| attention.

Debunking Some Linux Myths
,----[ Quote ]
| All of the major Linux distributions come in
| binary form, and installation is essentially
| the same as installing Windows from scratch -
| only a lot faster and easier. I can install
| Linux from scratch, onto a blank disk, and be
| ready to work in well under an hour. Note that
| I said "ready to work", not just done with the
| base installation and ready to start a long
| cycle of update and service pack installations.

Windows license refund donated to Mint
,----[ Quote ]
| I was recently contacted by a person called
| Graeme Cobbett. In his email he told me he got
| his Windows license refunded and donated that
| money to Linux Mint. Of course, as you can
| imagine, he felt pretty happy about it and he
| wanted to let people know how he did it.
