FFII and the AFUL (two free-software associations) have started a crowd-sourcing effort to provide information to the European Commission Competition agency about the lack of choice for the consumers when it comes to computers and compulsory pre-installed Windows. Original press-releases: http://press.ffii.org/Press%20releases/Share%20your%20operating%20system%20bundling%20tales%20with%20the%20EU http://aful.org/communiques/share-your-operating-system-bundling-tales-with-the-eu Here is my take to simplify the message, http://simos.info/blog/archives/1198 How is this relevant to LibreOffice? The source of the problem is the bundling of Microsoft Windows to the new computers. The manufacturers get discounts for the licenses if they support only Windows, if they promote only Windows on their websites and ads, and so on. If this relationship weakens, we may see a chance for LibreOffice on new computers, or Linux computers that obviously have LibreOffice. tl;dr: Visit http://ec.europa.eu/competition/forms/consumer_form_en.html to report cases where you could not buy a computer without Windows, while you had not need for Windows.
