Medion's Akoya E7214 is a 17in notebook with a low price tag but plenty of features. It's going on sale in Aldi supermarkets next week. It's perfect for anyone on a budget who wants a desktop replacement-style notebook that can be used for everyday office work, image editing and even for higher end tasks such as ripping DVDs and encoding videos. We like it.

The Medion Akoya E7214 is a great choice for anyone who wants an inexpensive yet fully featured and well performing notebook computer. You won't be able to play games with it, nor will you be able to use it while on the road, but as a home computer for everyday office work, schoolwork, and even photo processing and light video editing, it's perfect. It ships with Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium (32-bit), Microsoft Office 2010 Starter and BullGuard Internet Security software, so it's ready to use for word processing and basic spreadsheet work as soon as you power it up.
