Compulsory Windows purchasing by way of PC bundles is one of the biggest hurtles to alternative OS adoption. Some people have been able to fight it: "Reading the Slashdot article about Dave Mitchell from Great Britain, who got a 47 pounds refund from Dell for returning his copy of Windows was an inspiration for me to check, if it is possible in Poland, too. This is my success story."

I have been trying to do the same here in India for a Windows Vista Home Premium license that came preloaded with a HP Pavilion laptop.
I have tried making calls, e-mailed both Microsoft and HP regarding this but have not received any reply till date.
Can somebody help me out with this ?
