    After purchasing an open boxed item from best buy I thought it was going to be ok still due to the cord, mouse and keyboard with it as well.... I couldn't get the thing to turn on even after getting a newer monitor for it. I just took it back my son was over it and I had just got him something else for his Xmas big gift.
