If you get your broadband & phone with Sky, it'll cost you an extra ?15 a month (10 for your b/band & 5 for your phone). Only drawback to this is that you need a B.T. line & they'll charge you about another ?11.99 a month.

you can now transfer the line rental to sky too, which is only a tenner a month.

If u want to pay about 600 quid aldi normally have some shithot ones on offer, you'd pay twice as much for a similar spec one from pcworld or the like

thats looks a lotta cash for such a piece of turd..

each to their own

I have spent the last 9 months as a courier and our company has the Medion/Tevion contract for the pick-up and redelivering of stuff needing repair.

 

Needless to say, I have found myself picking up faulty products from the same set of customers almost on a weekly basis.

 

Medion/Tevion products are really poor quality and should be avoided like a toothless granny at a family party.

:::lol::: i must have been lucky then, had a pc and laptop by medion and never had a problem, once I got rid of vista and put XP on they've been as fast and stable as i've used

At Vendor meetings, the accepted wisdom is that it's almost impossible to buy a bad laptop these days, some just have better features than others. Then someone mentions Medion. Oh, how we all laugh.

On issues such as this, I have made a reolution to consult Stan.

?600 sounds way to much for a laptop these days <_<

You can get a decent dual processor Laptop from PC world for ?3-400. And if owt ever goes wrong you can mither 'em to f?ck and they'll sort it.

was waiting for my my name to get a mention :rofl:

Medion are purely a marketing company, no manufacturing or r and d, they simply rebadge third party kit.

 

Buying one of their laptops is like buying a Kia or a Daewoo car; loaded with extras at an affordable price but basically not as good as a "proper one".

I agree

 

Splashed ?700 on one six months ago maybe

 

Stupid, similar spec ones available now for ?250-300

 

All I do is surf and that, no need for a high spec, and that goes for most folk... I just wanted to get rid of the desk in the house...

 

 

Just get on ebuyer.co.uk or somewhere, and buy something that has plenty of good user reviews

Or has he branched out?
