A:AnswerThe processor can not be upgraded as it is soldered on the motherboard. You can increase the memory for around $40 which will give you more bandwidth and could help with speed, and you can replace the 1tB HDD with a 1TB SATA HDD for probably $200+ which would give you the most dramatic speed increases.
A:AnswerPros:
This is a all in one pc, no tower required. Just charging plug, keyboard, mouse. Easy operating system.
Cons:
The speaker does not operate very loud if doing a zoom conference. Was fading in and out. Took it in to the geek squad.
A:AnswerA specific country of origin is not listed. However, most computers (of all brands) are either made in China or made in some other location with parts that come from China.
A:AnswerThis is not a very fast computer. But it does come with Windows 10 Home. It also has 1 terabyte of storage with is 1,000 gigabytes. I would recommend asking your employer if this computer meets their requirements.
A:AnswerThis is not a great option to run virtual machines. I would look for a MODEL with at least an Intel i3 or AMD Ryzen 3 CPU. You will also want a SSD hard drive and 8GB of RAM.
A:AnswerNot sure exactly. Any memory chip should work as long as it is the right physical size. It takes laptop memory sticks. I used PNY - 32GB 2.666GHz PC4-21300 DDR4 SO-DIMM Unbuffered Non-ECC Laptop Memory - Black. This was a few hundred dollars cheaper than buying the next up computer!
A:AnswerYes, there is a webcam already installed.
Also a speaker & microphone. It comes with Skype already installed. I have successfully had one-to-ones on Skype. Haven't used Zoom on this computer. Hope this additional info helps.
