    For $280, you really can't beat this laptop. It has the option to expand the Ram to 16gb (Which I did). It has an optical drive. The Graphics card is enough to run Minecraft at decent settings. My son is also able to run World of Warships on it as well. Just remember, this is not a $1500 gaming rig, this a budget laptop that you can actually work on. I have an ASUS that was the same price and is garbage compared to this.

    first turned it on it had done some flickering while i did setup. Second time turned on the mouse wouldnt move and kept spitting tabs. Third turned it went hay wire wouldnt registar keypad open closed tabs. I had yet to use the computer just setting up and getting it ready to use for school. Final looked up the computer it known to have key pad problems. Ended up taking it back got somthing alittle more expensive but was assured by employee that unlike this computer it dosn't get returned or need fixing. So just save alittle more and get the more expensive ones, cause the cheap ones are not worth a dime.

    This laptop was horrible; screen had terrible color shift (narrow viewing angles), boot times were ridiculously slow. Super cheap build quality as well. Ended up returning it.

    Bought this laptop as it was on open box clearance. Figured it would tide me over while I was traveling and I could pass it down to my kids when I was through with it. But I wouldn't wish this hunk of junk on my worst enemy. Terrible, washed out screed with awful viewing angles, 1990's tech hard drive that was loud and SLOWWWW. If you popped an SSD in there, it would be decent enough but for the price, you might as well buy a tablet w/keyboard attachment; it would likely be faster than this travesty. Returned it the next day.

    Very slow, had only 1 month and it needs to go in for service. The start menu does not work the sound volume does not show up so you can't adjust the volume, when playing games it is very slow and it will stop working then it will start again. Not a good buy.
