Question from john: Asked on 22/02/2011 If I purchace the Micro office for £79.00 do I also get the disc?
If a dongle is purchased does the mean it will have bluetooth capability?
How good is the webcam?

Answer from simon: Answered on 23/02/2011
Office at £79.97 doesn't come on a disk it's a key card version where you download Office. If you go for the package at £89.97 it comes on a disk and will work on 3 PCs rather than just 1.

This model has no Bluetooth but we do sell dongals for £9.95 to add the feature. The web cam is 1.3MP so is decent quality.

If you need anymore help or want to place a order pls call myself (PAUL) on 01484 481 138.
