Have you ever wondered whether the extra accessories or unwanted software which you might receive with your laptops or PCs could be refunded? For example, you might have an extra graphics card or mouse lying about your house and your brand new PC came with another one and it wasn't optional when purchasing your new hardware, wouldn't you want to return them for a refund to save as much money as you can?

Well apparently someone did that in the UK and he managed to get his refund back. So what was it that he refunded which made the manufacturer refund back his money?  His operating system. For some people, running Microsoft as their main operating system (OS) is never their main intention and this addresses a group of people who are active in the Open source community. So this is apparent that Linux (an open source software) would be their main OS and Windows will never work for them.
