    My preference would be John Lewis.

    You can actually see what you are buying in one of their shops. They have good customer service and are a UK company owned by their staff.

    Amazon does have good customer service too. I prefer Amazon, simply as I use them more than a fair bit and in 5 years have had no issues. Well no I did with a manufacturer and Amazon stepped straight in a refunded me money and included 3 months prime for free.

    John Lewis will give you a two year guarantee.

    On a fair few of the laptops that they sell, this has now risen to a 3 year guarantee.

    No contest - John Lewis every time. Guarantees are good and customer service excellent.

    Do they actually have the one you want in stock? When I looked after reading your previous thread they only had 3 models and only 2 of them were in stock. If they do have it then yes, JL every time.
