    We bought this computer because our old screen broke and needed something for virtual learning. Haven’t had the thing a year and it’s barely operable for just a couple zoom meetings and very little internet browsing (not even watching videos or audio). The processor on this thing is horrible and it overheats after 20 minutes of use. I know it’s not my internet connection since my work computer is fine on the network. I know this is a cheap machine, but I would think it could at least work for a single zoom meeting and internet browsing.
