I bought this computer for my teenage niece but it kept crashing constantly. I took it back to Best Buy and they told me it needed to update the system. Now it works perfect.
I would definitely recommend it but will advise the upgrade too.

It's not flashy, nor is it anything special. It's a cheap desktop that's decent for web browsing, and that's about it.

I had given my old computer and monitor to my grandson...and purchased a new one for myself with the help of Best Buy experts. Within 2 weeks the old monitor wouldn't work...took it to Best Buy and they determined it not to be the monitor but the computer...so I needed to purchase a replacement for my grandson. I explained my situation and that my grandson was only 10. With their help I was able to decide on this one and it is perfect! Plus the cost was perfect! He plays his games and plays his You Tube videos. I highly recommend this computer as an entry level device. Thank you Best Buy!
