    Hi,

    I've managed to configure a pretty good deal on a 'Thinkpad' Edge (i5 with dedicated graphics for <£500 with employee (thank you Linux Foundation membership!) discounts; I know it won't be Thinkpad-quality, but I'm hoping it will be better than other budget consumer laptops), and I'm hoping to order sometime next week.

    Firstly, does anyone know if there will be a sale with roughly the same prices of the current, pre-xmas one in the next couple of weeks?

    Secondly, I'd like to save the current deal I've got as a quote. I've been right up to the billing process in checkout, and I can't find an option anywhere. Does anyone know if it's not possible to convert orders to quotes anymore, or perhaps if the option is not available in the UK?

    Thanks

    If I had a crystal ball I'd be on a beach in Costa Rica, not here. It'd be Consuelas job to keep me cool.

    The convert to quote just worked for me, but I don't know if it's the same in the UK.

    Thanks for the advice.

    If anyone's interested, the prices are still the same as the pre-Christmas sale (although in the end I went for an L412).
