But then there's crap like this on the review site which knocks the overall score down:
'The system is a nightmare to set up. Do I or don't I need virus protection? Who can I trust to answer that? Windows 8 is hard to understand in its own right compared with Android. After two weeks I am still using a painfully slow Windows 7 machine and an android phone rather than this thing. Why doesn't it just work out of the box?'

We bought some for business a few years ago. Lovely machines and this price is excellent.

Just to add, we bought from John Lewis and with a 3 year warranty. Might be worth seeing if they will price match.

They are on the same page as the laptop. Put me off.

I would personally ignore most of the reviews that say the screen isn't very bright. That is normally a Windows 'green' thing where adaptive brightness is turned on by default. You have to go into advanced power settings to turn this off as even moving the brightness slider to full doesn't work....
I am getting older now and I like my screens at full brightness.
