Microsoft has deals you can take advantage of to maximize your investment this Christmas season. For instance, if you buy a new computer with Windows 7 between now and January 2013, you can [url="http://www.windowsupgradeoffer.com"]get Windows 8 for $14.99[/url]. Also, if you buy Microsoft Office 2010 now, you can download the next version of Office for free when it comes out.

We also recommend any of the convertible ultrabook systems out there, especially for students heading off to college any time soon.</p> [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature.
