A:AnswerIt has been used for online classroom training and found to be a great quality picture, it is as good or better than many aftermarket stand alone cameras we've used in the past.
A:AnswerTurning off S mode is actually pretty simple. But if you have any problems turning it off, the best way to go is to contact the HP Support team, who can walk you through whatever steps you'll need to take.
A:AnswerThis laptop does not have a DVD drive. You may be ablt to download TurboTax software, if you first switch the laptop out of S Mode.
