I went down to my local Best Buy to check out the open box sale computers as my desktop had died recently and I found what I thought was a great deal only to find out after two days of trying to bypass the login of the previous buyer with Geek Squad that it wasn't gonna happen!
So now it's at Best Buy again,to be continued…..

In fact the HDMI has never worked
And without an network connection.
I think it could be on this unit as it is a 27 inch unit and I call this a "Lugable" not a tablet. But again not my complaint about size but Ethernet connection would have been nice.

It could be a driver issue that is preventing the HDMI port from working. Here is an article about fixing a non-working HDMI port in a Windows 8.1 system. Before you make any changes to your system or download new software, be sure to create a restore point: http://windowsreport.com/windows-8-hdmi-working/ You can also follow the link below to Lenovo.com support-drivers to look for driver updates for your specific system. Once again, create a restore point before you make any changes/download new software. Hope this helps: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/Desktops-and-all-in-ones/Horizon-Series/Horizon-2-27-Table-PC-IdeaCentre/F0AQ/000PUS?linkTrack=Caps%253ABody_SearchProduct&tabName=downloads&beta=false

I have had it for about a week and so far I am very pleased with the performance. Photoshop CC and Office 2013 installed easily and seem to be running without issue. I was a bit disappointed when I set it up and noticed that several Items that I thought were included were not:
- No 3-in-1 media reader
- No Built-in 10/100/1000 Ethernet LAN
- No E-Dice
The screen size and resolution are great and appears to be very responsive. All in all this is a pricey machine but it I am quite happy with it so far. Hopefully it stays that way

Needs a much faster hard drive

A 5400 RPM hard drive is completely inadequate for a modern Windows 8 system. Doesn't even make sense given the price for 7200rpm drives is almost the same. Better yet, a 512gb SSD is only about $150 more. Lenovo needs to get on the ball. Out of the box this desktop is way too slow to boot. And this is their updated model for fall 2014! Very disappointing!
Thankfully, I grabbed a Crucial MX100 SSD on Amazon, cloned the hard drive, and replaced it in about 2 hours. The screen pry's apart from the body which is a hair raising experience to do on a new PC. Thankfully, Lenovo has videos online for how to do this at (http://www.lenovoservicetraining.com/#. Needless to say, be very careful if you choose to do this.
Overall, it's a very nice device. My wife prefers the dull fingerprint proof screen, although I think it does look a little fuzzy #not as bright). That's a matter of choice. The Aura interface is very cool although we haven't used it that much yet. I prefer the 1080 HD resolution over QHD -- it's plenty sharp and battery life will be much better. The SSD will also improve battery life.

This PC is great with 4 hrs of battery outside or just a powerhouse for gaming. WOW, Shroud of the Avatar, & Battlefield 4 works great. Perfect screen for business use with clear reading/working on 2 Office documents side by side. You don't need high resolution beyond 1080p unless all of your media is 4K already. Blu-rays look great with the HDMI in port.
To get the upmost speed replace the HD with a 512GB SSD Crucial MX100 and everything will fly faster! - Only upgrade you will ever need. Easy to get in to put that SSD in.
1st non-Mac product I bought in 10 years. I am very pleased with it.

I need an in-car display that is faster than android & has a touch screen so i don't keep having to pull out my laptop. This works perfectly se on the passenger seat so I can pull over and access the web, enter data, and see my charts & maps. Having the battery for full portability is a coup as well.
When i'm out of the car, I put it on the stand enjoy the large display from my easy chair. Perfect.
