Windows Refund Day II
pbody writes "Sorry if this is rehashing an old topic, but I was looking for advice on how
to try to get a refund for the copy of XP that is coming with the laptop I
just bought when I came across this on LinuxJournal
about windowsrefund.net. They are
organizing "Windows Refund Day II" on January 23, 2003 -- which coincides
with the LinuxWorld Expo in NYC. Knowing how the first refund day turned
out, how many out there are going to the Expo and are thinking about
participating? For that matter, has anybody had any luck at all getting a refund from a vendor lately?"
By the same token the computer makers could claim that the Windows option is "free" when it's bundled, so if you return it they'll give you $0.00 back.
Speaking of the burger: My wife loves those little square dehydrated onions of McDonalds, so she often orders a cheeseburger without the meat pattie: It costs the same as a normal cheeseburger. Indeed I regularly get stuff without bacon (for health reasons) and again I don't get a discount unless they specifically made bacon an addon option.
