I really like this computer. I use my computers hard with lots of programs running at the same time. photo editing and some music production. On top of on-line classes and many 20-40 internet pages open. Probably a lot more in the background. This computer was super-fast. It runs as smooth as my iMacs and I7 computers. It didn't work out for me due to it not having WIFI. which for someone that knows how there is plenty of room to add a network card. and extra hard drive and graphic card if desired.  I had problems with being heard on my online class through the head set. I had purchased headset at another store for 19.99. I did not try and adjust headset either.  I will Look at that and comment before returning the computer. If you are using near your router or modem. this is an amazing computer. appearance is not shinny and new. If your concern about looks. I am not.  There are many inputs and out puts, front and back I will post pictures soon.  If purchasing I would upgrade the keyboard to something with wrist support.  Any monitor will due. I am using a thrift shop antique. The picture is very clear. no problems. It arrived fast.  I purchased a webcam and the head set. web cam I went with one from amazon. Webcam HD 1080p Web Camera, USB PC Computer Webcam with Microphone, Laptop Desktop Full HD Camera Video Webcam 110 Degree Widescreen, Pro Streaming Webcam for Recording, Calling, Conferencing, Gamin. This work very nicely and easy to install. all plug and play (go). Just make sure you purchase the connecting cables that you will need for the monitor and etc. You can't go wrong buying this computer. I would recommend it to anyone that is near a WIFI source to hard wire. don't forget to purchase cat cable also. for the accessories you could spend. about $150 and have everything. I recommend security and protection plan. it so reasonably priced to turn down. I don't work for amazon and I am not getting compensated for this review. I have in the past received compensation to try products. I am participating to help other customers.
