Punters who splash out on an Intel Centrino-powered Dell notebook will be able to use BT Openzone free for the first 90 days, a saving of £255.
90 days free service? £255 saving? Looks like 90 days of service costs £255...

Why do BT think they can get away with it when services like this are only just round the corner?!
