    A Well Priced and Useful Upgrade

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This HP is an excellent upgrade from an older computer that could not accept Windows 11. All old data transferred easily and Office 365 Personal loaded and operates without any problems. All my periferals hooked up plug-and-play wtihout any issues 2 HP printers (old B&W laser and newer Office Jet Pro color inkjet) , Older HP monitor (with an HDMI cable, Logitec camera/microphone, Boston speaker set, Seagate exernal hard drive - operate as before. I did have to add an external CD read-write unit as that is not included in the Desktop unit. There are still several usb ports available for flash drilve and othre future uses.

    Annoying Necessity

    I hate the new subscription style service that Microsoft now offers and that seems to be common place when it comes to any type of program. I used to be able to just purchase Microsoft office suite and be done with it however now you have to pay every year for the "updated" version? It sucks but I need it to get through my last years at University so I will grudgingly pay for it.

    I lost the activation keys when I moved to Sedona the week after I picked it up. Microsoft can't replace it and continues to tell me to activate it. I reach Best buy at all and when I finally get a warm body I get disconnected. It there an email or something.....Can someone help me? I hate giving 1 start ratings.

    Buggy right out of the box (no surprise). If you need it, buy it. Look for alternatives.

    I really haven't needed to use it yet. I'm disappointed that my 2008 Mac cannot use the latest features of Word.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The subscription model will cost substantially more than in the past. Moving to the WordPerfect Corel suite of office products. Between Windows 10 - a nightmare and privacy invader - and MS Office, I never want to see another MS product again. Also requires sign in to office products each day and sometimes several times in a day.

    Terrible Purchase

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Installing this product is a nightmare and five days later it vanishes and cannot be re-installed because you only get one installation. Calls to support are useless. I have not had access to the software for two weeks and the contract is only one year in length then you have to buy it again. If I could, I would give it no stars at all in the rating.

    1. I thought the PC had a touch screen. Not so 2. Very difficult to acclimate to a very foreign process. Could not install Windows Office. Dealt with the help desk for 4 days before someone could assist me. I still had to take it in to the Geek guys who exchanged the Office product for a new one. (I am not a novice and have owned more than 10 PC's in addition to using several at work sites.)

    I never bought this product but my credit card was charged 74 USD in Feb. 2018. Supposedly I bought this product in the Best Buy store in Tenleytown, Washington DC on Feb. 7. I have not been in that store since 2013... Efforts to reconcile this issue with Best Buy failed because all I got was an algorithm answer by their "customer care" computer.
