I'm giving this computer 5 stars for performance because it does very well. There are a couple of things about it I wish I could get different, 1st is the fact that we can no longer get a cd/dvd player/reader/burner with an HP computer and 2nd, I was under the assumption that there were suppose to be 3 USP ports and there are only 2, it is still a good unit.
Not a bad computer for the price. Just needed some basic and got it. Only thing requireded is an external CD to load software. Other than that, met my needs.
I purchased this for my parents, and it is very nice for the price since they only need it for email and web surfing. The only things I didn't like were 1) the weird location of the power button - who thought this was a good idea?, and 2) I didn't realize it came with a shiny screen and had to purchase a non-glare film for it separately, and 3) It's made of "recycled ocean plastic" so there are specs all over the finish, so it makes it look like it's covered in dust. That DOES bug me.. Otherwise, it has been working well so far and the quality of the screen and everything else seems really good.
