nope. it is your legal option to say no, so you did. m$ is legally bound to refund you. lenovo has to figure out how. did you have witnesses, and/or video-document the process with witnesses, when you clicked 'no' just so it is clear you never installed, copied, or ever used that bundled os, ever? you must carefully use the web to your advantage: 01. document, blog, video-document, everything. 02. post on websites, publicly-archived mailing lists. 03. especially any communication from their side. 04. keep noting the time-taken for each task. 05. fortify your case with precedents set elsewhere. yes, people have demanded and got back their money. regards niyam -- niyam bhushan _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22-24, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
