saved on a decent desktop
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.seems to be fine. works like it should. reasonably fast compared to the other hp units i've had. To upgrade the older HP would have cost this much anyway. I crossed my fingers and got a good one.

Nice desktop for a GREAT price!
Posted .This is the third one of these refurbished desktops that I have bought and besides the fact that I have had to re-download windows on them each time in order to get them to work correctly, I have had no problems. Great for smaller use (I use this one only for video surveillance camera equipment). I expected to wait two weeks for this to arrive and it showed up within two days! Super fast shipping! All in all, I would recommend.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionMine cane with no power cable or monitor cable. Is this normal? Do I have to purchase wires separately???
Asked by Noor.
- A:Answer There should have been a power cord for the PC. I don’t believe I received a VGA monitor cord. Contact Bestbuy for a power cord. The store may also provide you with a monitor cord for free.

Q: QuestionIs this compatible with HDMI or do I have to buy an adapter, and is this compatible with wireless wifi?
Asked by Kwuazi.
- A:Answer This desktop does not have a HDMI port, so you would need a VGA to HDMI or DisplayPort to HDMI adapter. Additionally, it does not have built in wireless connectivity, but you can use a WiFi adapter that connects via USB!
