This isn't the first time that Microsoft has offered exclusive deals for Windows Insiders - back in April, for example, it gave Insiders in France 10% off a Surface Book or Surface Pro 4, along with a free Surface Dock, worth €229.

In its email to UK Insiders, Microsoft also announced details of its next 'Create-A-Thon' event in London, which will take place next month:

Back in August, Windows Insiders got together in London to use the power of Windows 10 to tackle housing issues in our local communities. We organised a Create-A-Thon to develop an app that could crowdsource buildings sitting empty when they could serve as affordable housing.

Now, we’d like to make the app even better, with upgrades to the UI, new functionality and more. And we could really use the creative and development skills of Insiders like you to help us!

The event will be held at the University of West London on October 15; you can find out more and sign up for the event on this page.
