Highlights
- Key Specs
- Processor Model: Intel 3rd Generation Core i5 (Your computer's processor is like its brain. Working in combination with system memory, the power of the processor determines the complexity of software you can run, how many programs you can have open at the same time, and how fast those programs will run. Most computers feature an AMD, Intel or Snapdragon processor.)
- Storage Type: HDD
- Total Storage Capacity: 500 gigabytes
- System Memory (RAM): 4 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
- Graphics Type: Integrated (Dedicated graphics uses a separate graphics card for processing video images. Because it does not use memory from the system's RAM, there is no extra burden on the CPU and graphics are processed more efficiently. Integrated graphics shares system RAM to process video images.)
- Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000 (Often referred to as a "graphics processing unit" (GPU), this device is responsible for displaying image content and decoding/encoding video content in programs and games.)

Best Buy uses sketchy "companies" to use it name
I asked an employee in-person if the refurbished mac-mini's they are selling online would work for my basic needs, reading the news, and drawing with krita. He said they all would. This computer doesn't work for either, nor basically anything else except for basic google searches. I took it to two local computer tech's that told me it's obsolete and that BestBuy should not be selling these. Even worse, it was really sold from a "shadow company," not Best Buy, who will not accept the return, or even respond. There is an automatic prompt from Magnakon, when I try to write their "company" Wireless... It must have been in very small print somewhere that this was not actually bought from Best Buy even though I bought it from their website, it's actually from some sketchy "business" now operating under the umbrella "Best Buy." What a sketchy business Best Buy has become!! These practices will make them go bankrupt, how long will your warranties last when this happens?

Great for the price
Product is as described. It works a little slow but that’s probably due to the age of the product and not being able to do any additional updates.
