We had a family desktop computer tower that was 9 years old and on its last leg.  We all have far newer laptops and phones, but we still needed something newer for the home office, for schoolwork, bill paying, and internet surfing.  I didn't want to spend north of $400 for a new tower that would get light usage.  This HP Elite 8300 fit the bill perfectly.  It looks, feels, and operates as though it is brand new, even though it isn't.  We are very happy with it so far!
