I needed a laptop with more RAM, not necessarily the latest and greatest.  No touch screen, but I have a HDMI port for zooming, an Ethernet port for hooking up directly with my internet provider for troubleshooting my wifi, SD card reader for my husband's deer camera, which I can use my HDMI port to hook up to the TV, DVD  read/write drive and earbud connection.  Not to mention the 8 gig ram of memory.  Plenty of hard drive for storage, i only used 130 G in my last laptop.  Very Sturdy.  My last laptop had to be replaced because it was coming apart at the hinges.  No worries here.  It is not lightweight, but I had lightweight and it did not last.  Love it, love it.  Came preloaded with Windows 10.  And the price.....was incredible for all these features.  When I pulled it out of the box, my husband thought I bought a new one.  If the day ever comes that this one needs replacing..2030?  I will look at the refurbished ones first by this provider as long as they are listed on Amazon.
