I like the way you think. And of course, this would be ideal, except: 1. You probably will not get the laptop since the model you like comes only with Windows preinstalled. 2. The installation engineer will not agree to click "No" since it's your laptop and there no issue at the moment (btw, there's no "No".) 3. There will be no installation report since they do not have to "install" anything on a preloaded notebook. I have already offered to get the physical verification done by their service engineers at their service center and courier the media to them at my expense. But none of this matters since they have refused the refund outright on the grounds that the OS is bundled with the notebook. -- Manish _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] 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/[email protected]/
