Submission + - French Judge tells ASUS to refund pre-installed XP (racketiciel.info) 3
Racketiciel writes: "An French user asked for a refund after buying a ASUS computer
that came with Windows XP and other softwares pre-installed. ASUS tried to
apply a procedure which cost more money to the consumer that they
will give back ... The court ruled in favor of the user
who received back 130 Euro (~200 $) for the softwares.
Here is
the ruling (PDF, French).
In France, this is the fourth victory for refund during last two years,
and
many persons are now starting procedures (in French).
Two French associations (AFUL
and April) published
a press
release on this victory the same day a important hearing happened."
