    I am wondering if anyone knows what kind of timescale Zepto usually has on discontinuing older models?

    Now that the DX10 machines are out, how long will the go 7600 machines (6214 2425 etc) stay around?

    I see prices on the 6214 have dropped. It's the laptop I want next so I really hope they don't kill it off too soon!

    As Zepto-UK said, they will stay until they are out of parts :)
    Noone knows if that is months or days from now (unless you have insider info :p)

    hmm... I will be buying within the next 3 months. I hope the 6214 stays! If not I hope prices of the 6224 come down a bit, otherwise I'll have to look elsewhere.

    Gamer, not so much but Andrew has granted me the honour of testing the 6625WD. I presume that's what you're talking of?

    The 6615WD is gone from the danish website, but the 6214W is still available.
