Windows refund experience?

The new Dell laptop just arrived by Purolator.  I've got the Debian
install CD at the ready, but before I do anything, does anyone have
(local, or at least Canadian) experience with trying to get a Windows
refund from a manufacturer?

I notice I can't even see the EULA anywhere in the box; I suspect it's
likely to be in the shrinkwrapped Windows XP Home pamphlet.  [Though
there's no notice (at least on the outside) of the form "removing
shrinkwrap implies agreement".]

I certainly don't intend to turn the machine on without it booting
straight into Linux.  Any other hints?

Thanks,

   - Ian
