---------- Wiadomość oryginalna ---------- From: Ciaran O'Riordan ciaran@fsfe.org I've talked with Laurence. This is the consultation that was worked on on this list back in April but which was not submitted because something else had to be worked on as the April 14th deadline approached: http://mail.fsfeurope.org/pipermail/discussion/2006-April/005770.html

I've sent Laurence what we produced, and we will meet her after Aug 28th when the MEPs are back to work. Ciarán O'Riordan>>>>

Is it possible to get some MEPs interested in a Parliamentary Question on the subject of consumer rights (ie. being forced to buy Windows even if you are going to use Linux)?

It might support any 'investigation' the Commission is undertaking and make them more susceptible to considering, as an illegal tied sale, the fact that consumers, even if they use another OS, are forced to buy Windows.
