It was a no cost option - I suspect quite a few businesses are avoiding Windows 8 at the moment because of the impact it would have on productivity being to different to Windows 7

Re: Bogus Emails

I have recently received two emails purporting to come from DHL and Royal Mail. One said there was a parcel to be collected by me from the depot, and the other said a parcel supposedly posted by me was held up at customs. Both emails had attachments which I did not open. This is a scam so be aware in case you get similar.
