I got this PC to replace an aging Win7-equipped ASUS model. (Microsoft will stop security updates and such on Win7 machines in January, 2020.) So, I went shopping. ASUS didn't have a Win10 desktop that I liked in my price range.  So, partly because of the 500GB SSD drive, I got the Acer, and it's turned out all aces, and at a really friendly price!
