The E7212 does not look like its predecessors, with the unit sporting a brushed grey lid and piano black interior (the older models sport a piano black lid with matte silver interior). While the interior looks great, it is very prone to fingerprint marks and smudges, putting off users who want a clean computer.
Various ports are located on the side of the computer including three USB ports, a microphone, headphone, and audio-in jack, an E-SATA, Ethernet, and Display Port, as well as a 4-in-1 card reader. The unit also has a 1.3-megapixel webcam, microphone, and Wi-Fi built-in. In terms of hardware, the E7212 has an Intel Pentium processor (T4500 @ 2.3Ghz), 4GB of RAM, 320GB of storage, and a DVD/CD drive with burning capabilities.
Medion has also pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium (32-bit), Microsoft Works 9.0, Windows Live Essentials, a trial version of Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007, PowerDirector 8, PowerProducer 5, PowerDVD9, Media Show 4, Cyberlink Power2Go 6, CyberLink YouCam, CorelDraw Essentials 3 + MediaOne, and Bullguard Internet Security.
