    Good basic no frills computer, a bit of a challenge to initially setup, a call to tech support, very useful, solved that.

    We bought this so our teenage daughter could complete her daily distance learning assignments. We have two other kids that also need computers and so we needed a third. Crazy times. She has been able to successfully do that AND watch all the YouTube her heart desires. It's a great machine at an affordable price. If you're just looking for a laptop to get daily work done and surf the web, this is a great pick!

    It frequently freezes and the system will not permit you to install additional browsers. Edge is nice, but some programs work better with Firefox or Chrome. I'm order to install either of them, you have to make irreversible changes to the security system.
