PC World punts Windows 7 £100 trade-in promotion

WTF?

Not all that great really

The deal is 'up to £100' for a laptop so I thought I'd test it out. I had no intention og getting rid of my main laptop but I figured I'd get it valued.

My Toshiba P3 something laptop with 256 MB Ram was valued at £25 OK Not bad.

My current selling Lenovo Thinkpad with Dual core processor, 2GB ram and all the usual extras that cost me over £2k 6 months ago was valued at £75..

I have no idea what you need to get the £100 off.

Thumb Down

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

They must all live under power lines...

The affects of this sort of induction are still not truly understood and thats why suspended power lines are linked to health risks. This is truly madness.
