Some companies are able to do guaranteed repairs for £65 so even if it broke once (unlikely) £365 is ridiculous. Think of the price of the individual components - they are worth next to nothing.

Go into your nearest PC World on a Saturday afternoon and look at all the poor ******* queueing for some service on their computers. Then decide.

I had an S Series FSC laptop for 2.5 yrs and considering the abuse I gave it, it never failed, which is a miracle. Have an E series now and its great too.

In a recent Gartner (i think) report, FSC laptops were the most reliable in the business.

And yes, I might be a bit biased (I work for FSC )
