&gt; Erm ... windows isn't free on a new PC.&#9552; If you don't want it you can 
&gt; always pay less and not activate it ... can't you?

You might think so ;-)  Others here would know better than I
   on that front.  I'm sure different vendors will react
   differently.

There was once a fun story of 'windows refund day', you might
   want to read about.
