    Was browsing and came across a UK company: "Medion"

    Anyone got any experience/opinion with them?

    I ask because I stumbled across a laptop they produce... the site is hard to navigate but try to get to the "17 inch" laptop section and you'll see it:

    Specs are:

    The things that perked my interest is the extreme range of processor and the graphics card, which is all pretty powerful I believe ?

    I'm looking to do some "casual" gaming ... this looks ideal as a temporary "toy" until newer technologies get around.

    All for £899 too, but someone on eBay is selling it for £699, and is based in London, I can technically go pick it up right now if I wanted to.

    EDIT: I looked around, seems like a "Tesco's Value" range but owned by Sainsburys? I actually recall seeing it in Sainsburys...

    Limited info on the heat/build/quality of the machine though. Still looking.
