I bought this knowing it was "renewed," but the price was hard to ignore. However…you get what you pay for. Out of the box Windows would not immediately boot up. An error widow would appear saying I had to set the date and time. I would do that in the BIOS settings, but, upon next bootup, that error screen would appear again, as though I had not set the settings. This added a few minutes to the Windows bootup, a PITA. I called tech support. They guessed the battery was dead and said they would send a new computer. I asked if they had checked the battery. They said yes, but obviously hadn't. Tech support was very good. The computer was not. Bootup was very slow. Took more than five minutes to reach a usable state. Old, and slow. It will be interesting to see how long it lasts.Addendum: I bought an SSD to replace the HDD. Now boots up in less than 20 seconds.
