@rithuraj search the pages 30- 60 in the same thread dont remember the exact uploader but i can tell you that it is from the same thread. I REPEAT THERE IS NO THROTTLING I REPEAT THERE IS NO THROTTLING sorry was a bit busy and could not reply earlier
@NikiNfOuR first go to microsoft page and register your computer.If you purchased it after 3 june then you will be given a promo code write it down.there will be a installer in the page (after your request is approved) ,download it .it will be around 5 mb.Run it and it will scan the computer for all the apps and tell which all are compatible with windows 8. Note some important drivers will be in the list under "not compatible" category. do not mind and continue it will ask for your credit card details.input the details then a page will appear for payment of rs 1999.there will be a option to input the promo code and the final price to be paid is 699 rs.then select the option to keep all apps and settings and download the iso file .a activation key also will be generated in the process keep a note of it.A confirmation mail also will be sent to your mail with the product key .after download first burn the iso file in a dvd for future use.In the desktop a exe file for windows 8 upgrade will also be generated. click on it and select install now. the installer will update your current os and ask for the removal of some apps.do it and the installer will start the upgrade and it will take around 35 mins.after the update enter your details like email (i think you need a outlook or hotmail account) and
go this page
Windows 8 Upgrade | SAMSUNG
and download the software update file and run it to get all drivers.note easy setting will not work.so there will be no indication when caps and num lock are on. so download this app called tray status(search it in google)and select the option for it to show on the task bar.
It is a bit tedious process and do it only if you have around 3-4 hrs in hand but i think it is worth it as windows 8 rocksssss!!!! a great os and is fun to use.
the dvd costs around 1060rs with shipping included which is waste of money as there is a option to burn the iso file and the product key is also provided with a receipt

Today,I had talk with dealer who told me that S02IN is now gone launched as S03IN without Blu-ray drive and w/ window 8 and the price of S03IN is Rs.59,500/- here and will be available by this Thursday or Friday mostly !
So potential buyers now forgot S02IN and S01IN !
So now What to DO ?

Guys who've bought 550p, Congratulations. Saw the laptop today, its an absolute beauty. Though a bit heavy. Keyboard is nice too.
It's not readily available. Specially the i7 one. The best price I've got is 56k. People who've bought it, can you please suggest if it's the right price or should I bargain further.
