One of my acquaintances bought one a few months ago and he did this -

    0. Find the price online.  740 pounds in PCWorld and less in some other
       sites (this was R series).
    1. Goto TCR.  Asked price?  850 pounds!
    2. Run to PCWorld.
    3. They don't have it in stock but can take orders.
    4. Ordered, paid, left the store.
    5. Picked up from the store after two days.
    6. Installed Suse 10.1.  Wifi doesn't work despite having the right driver :-(
