Poor WiFi
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems like a good computer with the exception of the WiFi. I have had numberous issues with it not working or having to go in and change the setting to get it to work with the WiFi that is available. I would think it should swap to what is there for use but this is not the case. Being out of my office alot it has been unusable with not any WiFi, hurting my business I need to have WiFi that is more usable. May start to look for something else more business friendly.

Issues straight from the box
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased this laptop during a deal of the day sale and the buttons at the bottom of the touchpad do not work and are unresponsive. We have updated it, checked the drivers and also attempted to use them in the system bios and still have yet for them to be functional. This will be returned.
