For months, I was working from home, dealing with my *painfully* slow laptop, thinking, "this will all be over soon."When my employer said, "home for another month" I decided to pull the trigger and buy this mini PC.I'd never had an SSD machine before and -- SHAZAM! -- everything installs so fast the progress bar is a blur.  It boots in seconds.  I cringe every time I think about how much of my life was wasted waiting 15 seconds for this, 30 seconds for that, a zillion times a day.If you're working at your computer for hours a day and don't have a multicore SSD machine, buy one of these. Immediately.  It's a great deal and you will be *so* much less irritable at the end of each day.
