It is not only slow, but to make it a usable machine will require a new and faster hard drive, some new and modern parts, like an HDMI plug that the process of refurbishing failed to locate or note. It may predate HDMI. I did not expect a "supercomputer" from a refurb site, but I did not expect that it would be so obtuse as to not be able to access any programs, like Facebook or X. This machine MIGHT be suitable for someone who has unending patience and deep pockets. I do not. This will be my first and last refurbished computer. One of my children is a computer technician, he warned me this machine was not a quality machine. I did not think it could be so bad I could not make use of it by any means. At least it is cheap enough I can sell it for a parts machine. To be quite honest, this is the first item over 10.00 i have bought from Amazon that was bad/defective/junk. I will still buy through you, but no more refurbs.
