I ordered a laptop from one of our distributors here and they also said they would ONLY sell them with windows and wireless technology. So i said "OK i'll take my business elsewhere", They then complied and offered me the same laptop for 600 euro cheaper so i got a DVD burner and Extra RAM ;-) the only downside was that it was shipped with FreeDos But it was free so that's ok :) (NEC Rox) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
