This weeks Aldi Special Probably Visiting A Store Near You Soon.
Is this ALDI laptop really a bargain and if not what compares best with it?
http://www.aldi.ie/ie/html/offers/58_7525.htm VERSUS
http://www.microdirect.co.uk/ProductInfo.aspx?ProductID=26611
When you think about it just one knock to the ground could finnish that £590.00 Laptop off
Price 699.00 EUR OR a whopping £590.00 UK Sterling at current conversion rates
Is this the very best Asus Eee PC you would recommend spec wise by that manufacturer?
It has Inbuilt Webcam and sound wise not sure what it would be like
Would this be able to handle streaming from YouTube.com
Portability & Knockability apparently this little laptop can take the knocks?
Whats the screen like?
Aldi's Pocket PC Ladies Version which has Glittering Fake diamonds on will attract the thieves:) when out and about.
I have been told that Wimax thats 4G (google it) to people that do not know will be available early next year
even with the recession in full swing?
Should I hold till just after Christmas for best deal.?
Thanks Samantha

the eee is aimed at people who don't want to carry a large amount of data in their laptop and know they're going to drop it regularly.
one knock to the ground will stand a good chance of damaging any laptop with a regular disk drive but if you want to carry video and music files round then you'll end up buying an external drive for the eee anyhow (which will be vulnerable to impact)
Hold off until after christmas for a better deal. Everything will get a lot cheaper after this christmas and IT kit tends to lose value darn fast these days.
Liking the headline selling point on the aldi laptop :
Swarovski style
More than 300 original Swarovski crystals embedded in the notebook lid.

or on aldi.co.uk its priced at £500, why did you link to the irish aldi unless you libe in ireland0 -
I would take the advice and wait until after Xmas. Also the medion is overpriced for what it offers. I think they are trying to hype it as a designer item, whereas medion is hardly a designer brand. Also the poor exchange rate with the euro means it is over priced in the Uk. For quality i would prefer the Asus0
