    Fuller spec (.pdf)

    What do people think? Not for high-end gaming, but it doesn't look too bad for what I'd want it for.
    Gotta lurve that 3-year warranty... :)

    Broadly the same as the base spec Dell 6400 and so is the price

    The only difference for your €760 is

    core solo not core duo processor , should be good for battery life so the Medion

    1gb ram instead of 512mb

    Dual layer DVD writer instead of single layer

    Better s/w bundle

    Better audio support.

    3 year warranty not 1 .

    Bigger hard disk.

    However Dell _may_ give you a free Vista upgrade in the new year as standard where Medion may not.

    Not for any kinda gaming tbh. the intel 950 graphics are complete pants.
    be grand for non game\graphics intensive stuff.
