Buy X230T or wait for Windows 8?
Hello
I am interested in buying tips. I think I have a x230T for my son to use at school (at home). I like the idea of him being able to take notes, and then draw in the formulas, molecules etc right in the document word (or whatever it ends up being). I'm only interested in the ThinkPad (vs current Fujitsu) due the durablity and available education discounts.
I read about Yoga and other hybrid tablets expected with the launch of Windows 8 and do not know if it is wise to wait or buy now (or if they will be prohibitive prices). It seems that the new Tablet hybrids will be lighter than the current x230T. I also read that it is sensible to wait for Windows 8, designed in the spirit tablets. Here again, we have a first generation of Thinkpad Tablet and maybe make us just that.
Advice appreciated (while I continue to find customers - have got to say that I was disappointed by the comments of x230T. I bought my own X 220 last year and it had good reviews in all areas. BTW, another reason for my interest in the x230T - I already have the extended battery and docking station.)
Thank you!
Yoga and other types of tablets are touch the base, if you use it for taking notes or drawing, get the Tablet XxxxT or Fujitsu tablet.
If you got the multitouch screen, so you would be able to use metro on windows interface 8.
Reviews are the first point of the search, but personal experiences count more. I think that you have X 220, you know the kind of things you can expect from the X230t.

Windows 7 Edition Home Premium or wait for Windows 8
Hello
My six year, Sony's all-in-one PC is running slower and slower despite the developed and needs to be replaced this year. My dilemma is whether to replace now, probably with a laptop with screen 17.3 inch under Windows 7 Home Premium or wait for Windows 8 released. To use PC home and I'm a relatively unsohisticated user. Any advice much appreciated.
Before getting a new laptop or PC, check their website to see if they already Win8 pilots. If so and you want something that looks like XP, I'd go for scope Win7 in time Win8 once it is released. A lot of the manufacturer may offer a "anytime upgrade" of Win7 for Win8 with the purchase of their product. Dell and others who did when Win7 is out; you buy a PC with XP installed, and you could get the upgrade later for a reduced price (and in some cases, free).
I tried Win8 consumer Preview and really don't care for her. I'm not an iPad or iPhone user (I use my cell phone as a phone, not a computer), so I'm not all that familiar with the concept of full tile to do things. Give me a Start Menu and I'm happy :-)
Of course, these are just my opinions, and I don't know there are many others who will be either agree or disagree with me, and that's ok. Diversity is what keeps life interesting :-)

How to buy the product key for Windows 7
Then right - all I really want to know is how can I buy a product key for Windows 7 online. Whenever I'm directed to a list of local dealers, and I live in China, they are false here. I want a real one! A friend came to the United Kingdom in October last year, there's more for me, turns out she ordered on Amazon, and it also came from China, if the key is also FALSE. So - I have the disc, who want just the key. How can I do?

Where can I buy an additional license for Windows 7?
Hi all
I would like to know I can buy an additional license for Windows 7. I have a XP one computer want to upgrade to Windows 7. I have a disc from a previous purchase just a license to install on another computer.
Thank you

Original title: Windows 7 license
Product keys are not sold separately, but you can buy a license for sale at retail and use the packaging product key:
Microsoft is no longer at the price of Windows 7 because it ended sales in October 2013, so you will have to turn to third party providers who might still have in stock. Please note, due to demand and scarcity, there could be no available retail license and you may have to settle for licenses OEM System Builder, which are just as effective but come with license restrictions (which to be honest, are not a lot of weight, given that all future versions of Windows are full anyway (Windows 8.1 and later) versions. Please note that you must purchase the corresponding edition that corresponds with the drive you have:

How and where can I buy Adobe Illustrator CS5 for Windows?
How and where can I buy Adobe Illustrator CS5 for Windows?
Help, please
eeriks,
The key is to obtain and record the serial number genuine under your your Adobe ID be able to do it is the ultimate proof of a successful purchase.
It should be possible to find a new unused and so no CS5 Illustrator/Suite, without need of license transfer.
An opportunity, there EXTREMISM to transfer license by the incumbent of the registration of serial number holder, as said Monika; There is another requirement, namely that the series/license number has not been used as the basis for an upgrade to CS6 (in which case it is locked to this series/license number and cannot be sold).
Transfer an Adobe product license
In addition, an application must be disabled on any computer on which it has been activated.
Obviously, new / used almost certainly will be reflected in the price.

Buy now or wait for ICS?
When I'll be able to find a tablet on the shelves of stores Best Buy with ICS on that? Want to buy my first android Tablet and wait it killing me.
Generally, things are getting cheaper and better times light on, except automobiles and services by cable, so if you wait it will be better BUT you lose the use of it NOW!
If you are looking for the Xoom to does what you want then I would buy it. I bought my Xoom almost a year ago and I have never regretted. Not like the time where she said "Marine Hey let me show you something."
Seriously, if you use a product then there value and the value of this product is lost when you do not have to use. It will be cheaper and certainly better later but all this time how could did you use your Xoom for what you wish for, then you are indeed lose this value. If you have never purchased a Tablet, you would save a lot of money but it is better savings for not having to use?
If the Tablet does what you want today, then buy and enjoy now. The Xoom is supposed to get ICS and you will be able to use it while you wait for ICS.

Buy a product ID for Windows 7 Ultimate x32bit
I bought a new laptop with Windows 7 Ultimate already installed on it.
I am now trying to install Windows 10 but tells me that the key I is not valid.
My question is how can I buy or at least to get a valid key ID?
If its a new laptop, he could have been dismissed with a genuine copy of Windows.
A certificate of authenticity which indicates the version and edition of Windows, the laptop was initially allowed to verify at the bottom of the laptop or in the battery compartment.
If it is a version of Windows 7 or Windows 8, you can simply reinstall the appropriate version / edition, reactivate and perform the update free.

How to buy a product code for windows 7
Hello there I got a computer and it asks for a code of product for Windows
You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.
There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC? Don't ask Microsoft. »)
