I'd like to comment on this. I have a fujitsu siemens. I installed linux
and  the laptop was many times at repair. Their mode of operation was to
pull out my hd, insert a hd with windows, check, repair hardware and insert
back my hd.

So this scheme can work for every one. They usually say at the lab, backup,
etc. You always can claim that you don't ask them to repair the os, but only
the hardware. They have their test disk which checks everything, independent
of the os. And as last point, ask them where it's written that you have
warranty only if you have windows. A lawyer won't write such a thing in
these agreements/eula.
