Well said, Sudev! So here's my counter-proposal to Lenovo, MS, and any other interested party: My terms of buying a computer from you: I will willingly buy and use your computer with Winduhs or any other OS pre-installed, but I will not accept the EULA. If this is OK by you, then I will not ask for a refund on Winduhs either. Does that sound reasonable? :) Regards, -- Raju -- Raj Mathur [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://kandalaya.org/ GPG: 78D4 FC67 367F 40E2 0DD5 0FEF C968 D0EF CC68 D17F PsyTrance & Chill: http://schizoid.in/ || It is the mind that moves _______________________________________________ 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/
