I simply unplugged my laptop and transferred all necessary cables to my new ACER PC and carried on like nothing happened. I kept my old laptop running fairly good, but it was old. As soon as I had the ACER up and running, I could barely keep up. Fast, easy, and powerful. I actually picked a budget to choose a PC. The ACER was my first choice. I've never had any ACER product before, but I'm glad I do now. Value for money absolutely. I use it for everyday use. Some games, and banking, along with my media. Also thankyou to my Amazon, for all of my needs.Thankyou ACERKurt M. Speicher
