  • Questionlooking for laptop for paying bills.. printing on epsom printer with wifi...facebook ...general web surfing...no heavy games...just poker etc..face time with grankids out of state...something very basic...thanks

    Asked by granitegator.

    • Answer The Lenovo IdeaPad S145-15 laptop Uses Windows 10 S-Mode Operating system. Windows 10 S-Mode provides added security by only allowing APPs available ( and therefore certified by Microsoft) at the Microsoft Store. If you don't need the added security or you need to install APPs not available at the Microsoft Store, you can switch to standard Windows 10 Home 64-bit Operating System, at no additional cost. Facetime is an iOS product. It is not compatible with either Windows 10 S-Mode or Windows 10 Home. Windows uses Skype and other Windows compatible video call APPs. You can use any Windows 10 compatible printer with the IdeaPad S145-15. Check with your printer manufacturer for Windows 10 compatibility and pairing instructions for a new Windows 10 computer. The Lenovo IdeaPad S145-15 is a mid-level, moderate use configuration, with its AMD A6-9225 processor. This Dual-Core processor has a base speed of 2.6GHz and a boost speed of up to 3.0GHz. This configuration has 4GB of RAM. It is good with Microsoft Office type programs, internet browsing and other moderate work.
