Windows tax

The cost of having to pay for a unneeded Windows license, is often referrer to as Windows tax, primarily in the open source community. However by the Windows OEM EULA, you can get your Windows license refunded, if you can't/don't accept the EULA terms.

Lenovo hanged up on me when I tried to get a Windows tax refund.
