I certainly don't intend to turn the machine on without it booting straight into Linux. Any other hints?

There was a great article on a guy's experience _successfully_ getting a full refund from a hardware vendor ($199US) for XP.

He had to take them to small claims court, though. How far do you want to take it? Hear's the story on it:

If you read the story carefully, he got the court to rule in his favour. The collection of the $199 bucks is quite another story. If the company refuses to pay, he has to go to a bailiff or back to court. This is my understanding, but makes it no less of an overdue and joyful event. Perhaps CLIC will support Mr. Goldberg's endeavour? -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
