I'm not sure if this is a bargain, so I'll post and let yea all decide. The specs, details and price are not up on Aldi's Irish web site yet, so this is from the UK web site, (with the UK £600 price

): http://aldi.co.uk/uk/html/offers/2827_11960.htm

It's really a mid-range laptop spec built into the monitor. You might prefer to just buy a laptop, though the Aldi offer would take up less space, especially if you wall mount it.

Released in Germany last week and already reviewed:

There is a few of these pcs in Aldi Claremorris today reduced from E699.99 to E479.99. Pretty good value at that price, I think.

It does say to bring it back to the store if something happens within a month and they either repair or refund no questions

Hmmmmm, getting interested in this, didn't manage to treat myself to any major electrical stuff over the Xmas, has anyone purchases or seen in their local Aldi at the reduced price. Thanks

slave1 · 31-12-2009 12:57PM

crap, none in Athlone, any fellow Boardsie seen these guys?

Was talking to an employee in the new Ballincollig aldi today. They had one in stock, did a price check, but still displaying at €700. He even went into the back room and checked out the price, but no luck.

Still 2 in Claremorris 5.30pm today at E479.99 - there were 4 or 5 the first day I spotted them.

@ denant...don't suppose you pass through Athlone on your travels:(

slave1 · 02-01-2010 12:56PM

just wasted a trip to Claremorris, these guys are full price and were never reduced:(, you must have mistaken another product at the lower price, even checked with the manager
