Free Laptop
I read that AOL and Orange are giving away free laptops to get you to sign up with them, are they OK providers do you think or is the offer to good to be true?

Ya the free laptop has been around for some time and is nothing new you should time about the price drop and how much you will lose in that time

The Free laptop thing is just a line, and then they hook you in. Its a cheap advertising ploy, look for companies that dont offer "Too Good To Be True" Stuff, as most likely, it is. They will recover costs from you somehow, its in the small print :S

I am always concerned with any provider that needs to offer something like a free laptop in order to get people to sign up for their service. What is the catch, they will not just give you a laptop without something of value in trade.

I am interested in the free laptop deals, although I recognise that there may be a massive sting in the tail. I just need a laptop and I already pay more than £15 a month.

I do have one problem, currently I am thinking of moving and I was wondering whether I can take this deal to my new address?

Yes its a great offer but I think there must be some contract related to it as they'll not give you in just installation price.
