It seems as though Amazon are listening in many circumstances. Since my post on this a few weeks ago (http://www.theopensourcerer.com/2009/07/21/getting-your-microsoft-tax-refunded-1010-for-amazon-uk/) several others have reported success. Unfortunately there have been some situations where a request for a refund has fallen on deaf ears (http://www.theopensourcerer.com/2009/07/30/taxing-times-for-free-choice/). But I think the trend is definitely going in the right direction. Keep up the pressure. There is now a rumour that Asus are to re-introduce Linux on their products... http://www.i4u.com/article26266.html FYI - I installed Karmic my 1008HA and it's great. That’s great!

If I returned the product, they would incur costs in terms of restocking, and taking a loss by reselling a used product. No. I think it would have been worth for them to offer me a reduced price.
