Advantages: Looks stylish Disadvantages: looks can be deceptive, not designed for sitting on ha ha
My medion lasted the 1 year warranty period. I may or may have not got ripped off with the price,. I bought it from woolworths for £349, in the sales last year. It comes with a 15.4 inch lcd screen which is a good size for watching dvds, it also comes with a dvd re-writer, though I think most laptops do nowadays. Its ram is around 892 mb, which is not quite 1gb as the company would have you belive. In the year I have had it, there have been some niggling issues, such as when the battery meter says theres 60 minutes left, it will then say low battery after ten minuites.

The MedionMD 96290 is in my opinion a very good laptop for the price of it - roughly £500 - £600. It has many impressive features including Windows Vista Premium, Intel Pentium dual-core processor T2130, 120 GB hard disk , 30 GB recovery disk etc. However it has a relatively small screen compared to other laptops at 15.4 inches. It has a long battery life (lasts 3 hours when left uncharged) and I have not experienced any technical problems with it yet and I have had it since christmas 2007.
If you are looking for a laptop that isn't too expensive but still delivers good quality performance then this is the laptop for you. However, I suggest you use it more for work purposes as games don't run aswell on this laptop compared to other laptops due to the quality of the graphics card, therefore had to buy another laptop for my gaming ...

Well, I'm not to Technical when it come to the knowledge of a Laptop, so i'm just gonna tell you how i have found this PC without getting too Techy
I recently had to buy a new Laptop after my Fujitsu Siemans Laptop died a bad death, i was a bit gutted as i had been very happy with it, anyway i came across this Medion after some advice from a very techy computer friend who advised me that for £479 it was a great little buy, and had everything on it i required
Basically it has
Windows Vista Premium
Intel Pentium dual-core processor T2130
120 GB hard disk
Wireless internet capabillity
Can burn DVD and CD
Has a 4 in 1 memory card reader
It also came with a USB mouse, which i will probably never use and a protective carry bag, a handy place to store the bits and pieces that come with the laptop
The screen is a little smaller than ...
