Re: [LUG] Dont buy from PC World

 

I went to currys just 2 weeks ago to buy a laptop. issues that came up:
1. can't buy with Linux pre installed
2. can't get a windows OEM installation disk with the new bought computer
3. the warranty will be void in case of installing linux on it
4. you can buy a empty (not pre installed) one without warranty but not with warranty
5. the not pre installed machine costs the same as the pre installed one
6. and last, no drivers on disks

so i turned around and went to birmingham to the apple store and bought a powerbook.
I rather use mac OS than windows.
