Setup, both hardware and software is easy and intuitive for most with any degree of knowledge of a computers operation or even how to use a smart phone.
The only hard decision is whether to use Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or Both in your home to access the Internet. I expect this unit to last for at least a few years... eh?

This computer is better than I expected. Been using for 6 weeks and no lag and quiet as a mouse. Thank you to Best Buy for the Match and great service and super fast shipping.

This computer is easy to set up and was a great value for the price. At around $1,000 it is comparable to about a $2000 laptop. Absolutely wonderful if you do not need a portable laptop. The wireless mouse and keyboard were an added bonus!

I just got this for multimedia purposes but haven't really explored all of its potential yet. It boots up much better than my old laptop and is extremely quiet! The only thing I wish it had is a fire-wire port so I can import my 8mm Digital DV tapes! Still looking for a compatible part.

This computer looks awesome, and is very reliable. Its quite fast and able to play movies and some games quite well. However, we got this for Elder Scrolls and Secret World, and neither can be played at higher settings. But it is a great computer to start with.

I upgraded from a 4 year old WIndows 7 machine. I am very happy with the new HP ENVY and Windows 8.1. It was easy to learn and most of my programs were compatible. The transition was smooth and easy.
