I bought this to do the very simple tasks of word processing (writing) and browsing the internet.  It is basically unusable, except as an exercise in frustration.I just timed it and it takes 6.5 minutes from pressing the start button until the desktop is loaded with taskbar and icons.  During that time there are long periods (over a minute) when the monitor screen is black and you're not sure if the computer is still on.  Then about 1.5 minutes while it says "one moment" and a little circle spins round and round.Opening Google Chrome and waiting for it to load and be functional, takes about 7 minutes from the point when I pressed the power button. Opening a folder of pics in Explorer takes almost NINE minutes until it's loaded and operational.Everything I do on this computer takes at least 5-15 seconds while it "thinks" about it.It also has emits a constant, unpleasant, whining tone that's annoying in a quiet room.Too late to return, so it goes in the closet or in a box in the garage until I one day feel get over the sting of paying good money for this and I can throw it away.
