Many appreciate the computer's value for the price. However, some users express dissatisfaction with the lack of an operating system and the learning curve associated with Windows 8. A few also mention that the graphics card could be improved.

    I have never wrote a negative review before but I wish I had know about Windows 8 before I bought this computer. I had Windows 7 before for several years and just loved it. There is not anything about Windows 8 that I like. I don't know if it is my computer or what but it freezes up on me all of the time. I am still having a hard time trying to learn it after 6 weeks. I wished I had taken the money that I spent on this computer and repaired my old computer.

    Trying to figure out the apps is a bit of a problem. No explanation if apps have to stay on task bar or if they can be moved to desktop. A lot of little problems to sort out for such a high end computer, otherwise very happy with memory capacity.

    I got this because I needed a simple computer to upgrade later, instead of constantly upgrading to a new tower every year. My IT guy says this is the one to get. Looks good in the office too. The fan i think is a little loud, but that could also be due to the unit being confined inside a cubby in the desk.

    The only downside to this PC is the fact that it comes pre-loaded with a load of unnecessary stuff (for me at least), which I just had to uninstall. Otherwise, a top purchase (Although it does look like it was designed by a Cylon)

    Been awhile since we had a new computer system. This seems to be ok. runs faster and doesn't crash like our old one. Still trying to find everything.

    I am finding that in using larger databases like Facebook that there are a lot of hesitations in the operation of the program.... for a computer that is suppose to be faster and good for games or graphics.... I am not satisfied with the speed performance of the desktop in certain programs... Still overall performance is good and I will contact the company to find ways to improve the hesitation in the larger programs.

    This product is just what we were looking for in a computer! We love using it daily. We basically use it only for personal, home use, but we're often asked by others to do some "work" for them and they are always please and grateful.
