Well like most people, you've seen there adverts and seen the one that says
From £199 Displayed on a Computer screen and then on a Laptop!
So that to me says there's going to be laptops from £199!
So i thought great! lets go down and have a look, got up at 8 this morning and did my thing and went out with mum to PC world to start with.
Got there and there is a massive crowd WAITING for the doors to open @ PC World on there windows was there sales ect with there products.
When the doors opened people swarmed inside! and about 5 mins after, a man was complaining to someone about PC World's advert being a con ect.
Basicaly there was NOT a laptop from £199 and to my knownlodge there wass NOT a PC from £199
What a rip off! some people had been there since 7am!

But basicaly they didnt have any Laptops/Pcs for sale from £199
So your saying that advert was NOT for boxing day?
Funny you saying that, i remember seeing an ad on Christmas day and in the bottom left corner of the screen was the sidenote 'Offers only available 16th-24th Dec' I wonder if it was PC World ?
There are 10 Laptops each day and normally you line up and the first 10 people are given a printed voucher to collect their laptops
They don't put the laptops on display because they'd be a mass of people running towards them to grab one.
Yanyway, If you're interested I have a few second hand refurbed laptops for sale:
Compaq presario M2000, toshiba satellite pro L10 or a hp omnibook XE3
