"A Laptop"

I'm thinking of getting a Laptop right now but I'm not sure if I'm gonna regret it pretty soon. Does anyone know if there's a real change in price in the run-up to or after Christmas?

I'm thinking about using Ebuyer but I don't want to buy it now, go on the site after Christmas and see "JANUARY SALE - 90% OF ALL LAPTOPS!!!!!!". I'd really kill myself.

Or should I just get it now because the price isn't gonna change?

size-wise, its a beast.

I warn you, you may think 'ah, it's cool it won't weigh too much', in a months time you'll be hating yourself (assuming you buy it within the next month)

:-)

Me too. Gets roasty though.

I haven't had much of a look around, but that is a great spec for decent money. If I needed a new laptop just now I'd consider that one actually.

This one:

I need it so that I can do coursework between home and Uni. I also wanted it for playing games on, nothing hardcore, just casual hence the 64mb graphics (Urgh...)

If you can suggest anything better (I'm looking to keep it under £1000) then that'd be helpful....

What laptop are you going for?

Kill yourself now and get it over with.

Thanks guys, much appreciated.

I'll be getting it next week then.

Especially on laptops, they are always priced at a premium.

Price drops on computers are generally tied to price drops on processors. Intel won't be making the next price drop as usual, they are skipping one I heard.

Still, you are unlikely to save a lot after Christmas.

Wait, it'll be cheaper after Christmas.
