interesting offer Microsoft has cooked up. I was going to wait to buy a new laptop but I think I don't have to wait now.

https://windowsupgradeoffer.com/en-US/Home/ProgramInfo

And if you read the info you don't even have to install Win8 on the new Win7 device:

"While the offer will be limited to eligible customers who purchase a qualified PC, the upgrade may be installed on any compatible Windows-based PC with a qualifying operating system."

I tried to look up what 'qualifying' was and couldn't see the details but I'm told it's Vista and above.

Not a bad deal.
