I've owned this particular configuration for about two years now... I can confidently say 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage is underwhelming. Unless you are going to use this for light web browsing, you will find yourself wanting more RAM and more storage. Only having a game or two installed required a bit of a struggle when wanting to update the operating system because I was often under 20-30GB of usable storage. As for the RAM, I often had prompts telling me I ran out of system memory.Don't settle with the minimum spec, upgrade to at least 16GB of RAM at 512GB of storage minimum.
