Pavithran, Welcome to the joys of shopping at a branch of PC-World or other DSG Intnl group store (Dixons, Currys) your experience is not that uncommon. Even when they had some eeeBook 701's with Linux on them, the employees(from my experience) promoted the Windows alternatives. The quote about not being able to download anything is also (again from my own experience) not unheard of either.
There are other places to shop. IMHO, PC-World is the store of last resort and I will only enter one with gritted teeth. I vowed never to enter one ever again after the insisted that I provide a valid name & address for a cash purchase.
