    Great computer until is just stopped working randomly. Peter (the comuters name) was a refurbished computer and you could tell that something just wasn't quite right. Like if you had 30 humand that really are laptop computers, Peter would probably be the onepicked, out of the 30 computers to be the psycho killer.sometimes Peter just turns off, sometimes you go from one screen to the next without touching any buttons. And I'm guessing because it was purchased at the outlet the warranty is minimal, like ome.month inless you buy the plan that costs more than the computer. That's if I can find it unfer my account

    The intel version of the lenovo is the one you want to get. For whatever reason, This version with the AMD processor does not let you upgrade the memory. So youre stuck w/ 8GB which is now considered the 4GB of the world. Today's application require atleast 16GB. The intel version of the lenovo laptop lets you upgrade without issue. This laptop doesnt even have a memory slot. Oh and the intel version is around the same price.

    I can say it is very good for its price. As a result, it is not a gaming PC. It is not very fast. But if we look at the price-performance ratio, it is amazing.
