Didn't the EULA change with Vista so the refund terms are up to the supplier? I think some companies have an additional EULA that says you must return the whole lot (hardware included) for a refund. I think this might close the Windows refund option for some people. BTW I am just googling this. I don't have any EULAs here to check. I would be happy for the ACCC to slap someone on the wrist but if they don't have any legal reason I guess that isn't happening. I am not sure the refund thing is a good idea long term as far as getting retailers to look at Linux favourably. They probably think we are a bunch of anti-business trouble makers which might not help convince them to market to us. Perhaps a flood of people buying Dell Latitude 2100s with Ubuntu pre-installed from Dell Australia might help? Although I wish they would offer Ubuntu on higher end products as well. The idea that Ubuntu is a budget option compared to Windows being premium kind of annoys me. -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
