That's right, the laptop is given for free. Of course terms and conditions may apply but you can indeed get the 2GB Asus Eee PC 700 when you switch to a bank's checking account.
You have to be Canadian (sorry everyone) in order to get this deal. And you would have to contact your local RBC Royal Bank branch to go through the necessary steps in order to get this free computer. I actually wonder what the catch is for them to afford buying as many laptops, each one worth $300. I am sure they will get their money back from their future customers right?
Nevertheless this is a good marketing idea. Offering an Asus Eee PC is so much more than offering a $25 gift card. I wonder where this innovative idea lead to, in terms of bank services. Who's going to be the first bank to offer a free iPhone?
