I went through 3 different lower end laptops (I only need it to run a couple windows specific programs that don't work on MAC) and THIS one is quite the little powerhouse!  Very well built, sturdy, and FAST!  Start up was almost faster than my MAC!  Touchpad is smooth and responsive.  I like that it is a "full" touch pad too, with no right/left keys below it.  You just push down on touchpad to "click the mouse".  Harddrive doesn't sit and run and run like the other 2 I tried out, in fact you don't hear it running at all.  No heat buildup either.  It is also very light weight and compact but not "cheap" feeling at all.It comes with Office already on it and also Windows 10-S but during the setup process it will even ask you if you want to disengage the S part, very, very easy to do.No you cannot run the world with this and it is not meant for high end use with large programs or graphics intensive functions(gaming) but if you are just looking for a basic, email, browser with a few programs/apps loaded (or use flashdrive storage) this is The One.I never thought I'd hear myself say this as a staunch mac user but this little buddy has made me a PC/Windows fan again. That right there is quite a feat!
