    Hey all,

    Long time reader, first time poster. :p

    I'm really interested in purchasing the Samsung Q210, as it ticks all my specification boxes. The only problem is that I haven't actually seen one in person! How a laptop looks and feels is a biggie for me, so does anybody know of any in-store displays of Q210s where I could poke and prod a demo machine?

    I live in Staffordshire, so any displays in Manchster or Birmingham would be perfect...

    goto argos and ask if you can see the laptop. They are always happy to open the box whenever i want to see something, and then if you want to play, john lewis has the q310 on display which is nearly identical

    Good idea - thanks for that.

    Only problem now is that every Argos within 30 miles is out of stock! :rolleyes:

    I bought my laptop from thepcbusiness in store. They're effectively SaveonSamsung but it's their retail shop. They have the Q210 and the Q310 on display. The instore price is £30 more than the online price but i had to buy with 2 cards so the only way was to purchase instore, plus i got served by a proper hot chick =D

    Thanks for the replies. I ended up purchasing a Q210 from Argos. The nice manager there allowed me to take it out of the box and have a play with it before purchase. :D

    Very happy with it so far!
