I have made the commitment and ordered the Laptop. There were a few challenges in the process, but we got there in the end (Although Darrin, you need to delete the old quote in the order as I'm not paying twice)
I have to say, Darrin, hats off kind sir. You were a breath of fresh air and are the true meaning of "Customer Support/Sales Support". Incredibly helpful and quite frankly, when spending £1269, is always nice to have Whoever your boss is, needs to give you a raise !!!!!
Here's the spec lads. Comments and feedback always good - especially as the money doesn't move over until Wednesday next week, so a chance to adjust if needed
