Bought it to replace a 12 year old PC for my family room media center.  Works so much faster, love the SSD quick action...like my friend said, "The icons are on your TV before you push the power button!"  Well...maybe not THAT fast, but still, nice!  Optical drive works quietly...important when watching "Babylon 5" disks.  Networks (kindergarten report card?) well with others...like my other six PCs in the house; nice to share files and access.
