License-mania

Seems anyone who buys a Dell has to agree to accept any and all software-related licenses that Dell chooses, unseen [via IP] - or pay the shipping costs to return the goods. The more cases of consumer abuse like this we see, the more likely we'll all opt for an open world, like Sterling Ball has done.

[More: Seems one also has to assure Dell one's not a terrorist...]
