Bought this because I already had the ram and it wasnt' that much. It's SCREAMING FAST for its class! I'm bummed that one of the outputs is VGA because that's really obsolete these days. But, I'm running it with Ubuntu on two monitors, the VGA is a dashboard so I don't mind that it's a little blurry, and the machine is just STUPID FAST when all I wanted was a cheap spare machine. Full-res bluetooth movie file, viewed on VLC over wireless, played flawlessly at 1080p with no dropping at all. Browser is fast and responsive. Great little machine!(I'm running it with 8G of ram and a Samsung SSD.)
