    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.

    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.
