I'm holding off on buying a laptop until Windows 8 comes out, but I can't seem to find any confirmed laptops that are coming to Canada, specifically made for Windows 8.
Does anyone know where I can find this info, or do we have to wait until October?

Once Windows 8 is release all Laptops being sold with start to slowly arrive with Windows 8. There wont be laptops specifically released for Windows 8.
That is more so done with tablets and phones.

Make sure to get a computer with a touchscreen or else...
Unless you have tried the beta (and liked it) you will most likely be severely disappointed by the new win8 interface..
unless you like pretty things and hate productivity.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I meant laptops that would include touchscreens.

Some manufacturers/brands offer the deal that they'll upgrade your computer to win 8 when it comes out for free. Sony, Asus, HP, and Toshiba all have touch screen computers.
