We are on a TIGHT budget so we went with computer. There are 3 things missing on this computer that may be an issue in whether you purchase this for yourself. 1. VGA Cord, that connects the monitor to the tower. I don't remember seeing that this PC didn't come with this cord until I opened the instruction manual. 2. There is NO Bluetooth installed on this computer. 3. There are no external speakersI've had this PC about 2 months and now that I've gotten used to it I'm fine with it. I'm lucky that my dad never throws any cords away so he had a spare VGA cord on hand you may have to go out and buy one from Best Buy or Amazon. As far as Bluetooth it is inconvenient but I don't use it on this PC. And as far as the speakers I just use my earbuds.
