A:Answer This machine runs Excel and Word noticeably better than my 1-2 year old computer at the office. I am a light gamer, playing mostly 3rd person RPG and I can run my 2-3 favorites with max options with no lag. The games I'm playing right now are on 3-4 year old engines, so they probably aren't as demanding as the newest games or a first person, so if someone else has better insight on those, hopefully they'll let you know.
The keypad is full size, too, if you're a keyboard player...
