    Windows - Refund from the manufacture?

    A while back, the big computer makers were giving refund for the Windows OS providing the EULA was not accepted on a new system. I recall a fair amount of talk about Dell and HP doing this.

    My question is... Is this sort of thing still happening? I'm sure if it is happening, it's probably as painful as pulling teeth - still.

    It's in the Windows EULA, which AFAIK hasn't changed.

    It's been done before.
