FYI, your HP tech support starts ticking when they ship it to Amazon. So if it's for a month, you are out of luck. Got this as a gift for Christmas. Just used for light work and basic web browsing, didn'thave high expectations,  but this computer is poopie. To date, only a month in use, it has had issues with explorer functioning properly and now has the black screen with cursor issue. Tech support was not able to help. This is a software problem not hard drive problem. So off to someone else to pay for a fix. Hopefully it can be fixed. Don't buy unless you want a disposable laptop.
