Does anyone have any idea as to how good Medion laptops are? It's only for my parents who want to do nothing else but use it the internet, get email and mess about with family/holiday photos. They don't want an all dancing, all singing game playing laptop, just something that will suit their needs.

I saw this one earlier for £499, anyone have any experience with Medions?
