Finally I can confirm.
After buying an ASUS notebook, I tried to ask for a refund of the license ASUS windows, and I was immediately answered with a simple and straightforward procedure to obtain it.
I have not had to ship the laptop to care (at customer expense) as required by other companies, but simply follow the steps very clear that ASUS announced the request for reimbursement.
The thing that is required is that windows has never been launched on the computer, which has not been accepted the license, and registered with microsoft.
Of course, the request must be made within 14 days of purchase.
Anyway ... I have taken all steps required by ASUS, spent 5 euros for a simple and regards, to get (in my case, depends on the version of Windows pre-installed) less than 43 euros refund (by bank) ... but I also finished 0 euro, is the principle that counts, finally have the opportunity to clearly state that the windows I do not give anything, and do not want it on my computer ...

Happy ... Happy Debian ASUS ....

I found this extension for firefox , which I find really cool, unfortunately not open source.

If anybody can give me an alternative open source (or free software) that is independent of the browser (in the sense that it supports all popular browsers), independent of the OS, which I sync bookmarks, history (the password synchronization 'I have disabled), which allows me to see my bookmarks through the web, are also immediately ready to change ...

For now this is the best I found.

I forgot: if you are paranoid lot, until some version of it (I never used, and I do not know if it is still available as a feature) it was possible to set up your own server, just that it is always accessible to allow synchronization anywhere it is ...
