Although many people have asked for pre-installed Linux, and Dell seems to have listened, some still think that buying a naked PC won’t be easy. But what about stripping it naked after you buy it? I managed to get Windows Vista (and a bit more) refunded from Dell Germany last week. The process was surprisingly simple.
This happened overseas so I’m not sure how possible it would be over here. It wouldn’t hurt to give it a try if you don’t plan on using your Vista install on a new notebook though. I wouldn’t blame you.
