    I suspect that it should read 64 bit. I'll double check tomorrow when I
    phone them.

    My biggest tip is to check the bottom and make sure there isnt a
    sticker advising you NOT to use it on your lap.

    Seriously :-(

    Under Tech Spec it says "Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64".

  6. Check this out:

    http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/medion-p6624-laptop-akoya-i5-2-53gh/833834

    i5, 4GB, 640GB, Geforce GT425M

    V quickly goes out of stock online but stores have them. Read the
    thread carefully. Supplied with w7-32 installed but disks for 32 & 64
    flavours in box. Most people find it quick enough for games etc.

    I still haven't got to the bottom of why it has a 1GB video card but
    windows reports only 64MB of graphics ram.

    To you and Ginge I say that I did get two of the Edge models for around the
    £500 mark. As I said, the prices vary wildly.

    Strong words of caution about Laptops Direct. They mis sold us some warranty
    and flatly refused to refund us. I had to pass it onto the CC company.

    Woops. OK Mea Culpa.

    I'd say they are worth an extra ton though P. The HD HDMI output is pretty
    good too.

    Had a Medion before and wasn't too impressed with how long it lasted.

    Noticed that. When I phoned earlier they couldn't decide whether it was 32
    or 64 bit so they left the list.
