<wikipedia> According to Microsoft's End User License Agreement, the end user can return Windows for a refund by refusing the terms of the license:[12] By using the software, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the software. Instead, contact the manufacturer or installer to determine their return policy for a refund or credit. Vendors, however, are allowed by Microsoft to avoid this refund by requiring that the computer be returned altogether, despite this being a violation of consumer protection law in many countries.[citation needed] Microsoft clarified the EULA with the release of Windows 7:[13] By using the software, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the software. Instead, contact the manufacturer or installer to determine its return policy. You must comply with that policy, which might limit your rights or require you to return the entire system on which the software is installed. </wikipedia> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_refund
