I don't think the system CAN accept a refund. We were virtualizing 150 computers into a VM environment and I asked what was going to happen to the hardware replacement budget for the machines that were virtualized. I got a lot of Hem and Hawing and they said something like 'we can throw it at workstations or training or something.'

I remember talking to someone who had done a postdoc in Japan and he said that their labs had computers that had been budgeted as a consumable. At the end of a year some admin guy came with a small hammer and smashed the machines to make sure they were 'consumed'.
