    It is completely different from the other windows programs That isn't Best Buys fault, of course. Technology marches on, even when they make things worse.

    Hate the new windows 8.1. Can't find anything good about it. Not user friendly for a desktop. Bought it online which was a mistake. For having 8 GB of memory it is slower than my old computer which only had 3. Best Buy won't take it back so now I'm stuck with it. Keyboard that came with it sucks.

    So far I am pleased with the performance and versatility. I admit to being taken aback by the small form factor and lack of ability to upgrade video, audio, or cpu. At least there is a memory upgrade possible. I'll have to read much more closely and have the case opened before buying next time.
