I needed this computer for a class i am taking that was is compatible with my all-in-one. So I decided the get a refurbished one. The shipping was very fast. My only cons were the first time I ordered power cord was very delicate and kept shutting down. Second con is the replacement that was sent out worked wonderfully however, it does not recognize the mouse that was provided. And it cannot support the Microsoft 11 update.  Do I recommend, yes if u need one in a pinch and have a primary computer.  If this will be your everyday computer then no, I do not recommend.
