Are Windows 8 Refunds Possible??

I'm thinking of getting the inspiron14 5447 in a few days..however there seems to be no option of getting it without an OS(or Linux or free dos)..

I really don't like windows 8 and prefer using Ubuntu :)

AFAIK a refund is my only option..how would i go on getting a refund for the licence bundled with the PC I'm buying ??Thanks in advance

No refunds as per the agreement with Microsoft. You can however buy through the Business Sales site even if you are not a business. Configuration of the computer with diff OS is possible if you choose a business model like this--

However it would be more economical to buy the Inspiron with windows and make a system image to save for the future when you might want to sell it. The windows operating system belongs to the computer so needs to be included.
