    looks good to me. Note that the screen is just 12 inches which some people will either love or hate... I like it

    Here's the link to the laptop:

    not much of bargain unless you need a high spec laptop, also haven't heard too good of feedback from people for the previous Aldi laptops, you could get 2 dells for this and still have change. Really don't understand peopel spending thousands on laptops, and then use them for 10% of what they are capable of.

    I don't understand where you are coming from either, that Aldi Laptop has some nice extras but is definately not "high spec", if you tried to play any new games on it, it would choke and die ;)

    But I agree with the people buying powerful laptops when they don't need them - in work recently my mother was given a 1.8 Pentium M with 1gb ram and 128mb gfx - and all she uses it for is word processing, email and a few other minor packages that would run on a 500mhz machine! If only I had money to throw around like that...
