harry94 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Today i visited Power Buy ,I am thinking about buying a new lap top . i was looking at Acer , then i noticed on some of the descriptions it said Windows Free ! , does that mean some of their computers will come with out Windows 11. or you have to pay extra for windows ?

Popular Post Bruno123 Posted August 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 27, 2022 Why didn't you ask them when you were there? Don't buy any laptop that doesn't have a solid state drive within. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how these shops can install a Windows for 300bht....A genuine Windows ups the price a lot.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excel Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 (edited) It's most likely means exactly what it say "Windows Free" meaning you don't have to pay for it. Most likely Win 11 these days. You obviously know what model you were looking at so just google the ACER Thai site and read the spec. https://store.acer.com/th-th/?utm_campaign=acerstore-()-traffic-2022-th&utm_source=google&utm_medium=search&utm_term=dynamic_search_ads-text_1-brand&gclid=CjwKCAjw3qGYBhBSEiwAcnTRLsr6Qc01DM6TfC4Axu2cSv6RsQ93aF10BnHuXmUUms90_7bunO-y-BoCrwYQAvD_BwE Edited August 27, 2022 by Excel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cnx1204 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Make sure you get a certified legal copy of windows complete with its code so you can register it on line as (a) legal and (b) yours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterw42 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 OP, Its quiet common, in shops like powerbuy, for cheaper laptops to ship without windows. It keeps the ticket price down. They will have Linux. There is usually an option for bogus windows or legit windows for extra. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acer laptops seem good to me. Using one now, 11 years old, purchased secondhand in South America. It had a U.S.A. keyboard but as some of the keys eventually failed, I had that replaced with a U.K. one. Mrs bought a different model of Acer laptop in Thailand, dating from 2009 which works well too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dj230 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 (edited) Every PC laptop is going to come with windows as thats the operating system, whether it come with windows 11 or an older version is not certain but typically laptops get upgraded/sold with the latest operating system. I would recommend Dell over Asus, typically with PC laptops you're looking for a company which has better engineering and higher quality components.
