Jeff Walsh/IWP cc: Subject: Re: Why go to Microsoft?
Jeff — Several reasons could be cited — but perhaps the most significant is that, overwhelmingly, OEMs have refused to honor ther refund obligation, because Microsoft will not reimburse them. > Throughout the EULA, Manufacturer refers to the hardware OEM > (Compaq, Dell, etc.). A partial truth: The licensor is actually Microsoft Licensing, Inc., and the OEM is effectively their agent. We feel Microsoft will agree that it’s in everyone’s interest, including its own, to satisfy users’ legitimate refund claims _directly_, in this case. — Cheers, Linux: It is now safe to turn on your computer.
