Space   10 #4 Posted July 13, 2012 Might be worth waiting until October to buy a new laptop if you can as Windows 8 will be released.. Might as well get the new OS pre-installed while you're at it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

muddywolf   10 #6 Posted July 13, 2012 You can opt in for the windows 8 upgrade if you purchase a windows 7 machine from now on anyway http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/upgrade-offer I'm not a expert on computers but a laptop at £350 with warranty cannot be too bad of a buy.
