So it came in today. Ok, so it’s a bit glitchy. I dont know if it’s just the one I bought or what, but there are these annoying lines that keep appearing across the screen. While i was setting it up, the computer re-started several times without prompting, and i had to unplug it twice to re-start because it became unresponsive. Also, the Internet Explorer that came with the computer did not work, so I had to cut a shortcut from another computer onto a disc to get it to work here.
To be fair, I like the keyboard and mouse that came with it, they are both fast and silent, and aside from the lines, internet explorer fiasco, and initial re-start glitches, it seems to be working generally well now. The design is also sleek, and dose’nt take up too much space.
My advise would be to go with your traditional desktop, or maybe try Compaq’s version of the all-in-one, unless you have the patience to deal with possible de-glitch-ing.
I am going to give this computer a chance myself, but you may want to try for something else.
However, if you are a creative computer geek, maybe you’ll be able to get something more out of it.

I’ve had the machine for almost two weeks now an all seems fine. This is my third computer since 1997. One thing I especially like is the fact that it isn’t loaded up with a bunch of programs I will never use. It’s running Windows 7 Premium which is the fastest Windows OS I think so far. 4GB of memory is amazing to me since my last computer only was 500 MB, and the one before that was 32 MB of memory. I paid $542.41 so the fact that it has gone up in price means people are buying it. Even $600 would be good considering it takes up so much less space. Several years ago I saw an Apple that was an All-In-One and I new PC would soon follow. This computer comes with all you need, Microsoft Office and several introductory programs for business. I’m sure NASA could use it to launch rockets, so the hard core computer geeks should like it also. Dollar for dollar, this is a good buy from a good computer manufacturer. The monitor displays images very sharp, clear and with excellent color. All-In-One computers are the future.
