Only been using my new desktop for about a month now. Much faster and quieter than my old laptop that stopped working. I totally appreciate the 4 USB ports on the FRONT, plus the ear phone jack in the front also. So much easier to put in and take out all my thumb drives.
Has a very good processor, plenty of RAM, and the 256 GB boot SSD really makes it very responsive. The 1 TB hard drive adds plenty of storage for all my data needs. I'm not a gamer, so don't need a high end video card, but the default Intel video works well with photos and basic photo editing, and has no issues playing videos smoothly. Not having to pay for a high end video card I don't need made this a great value for me. And if my needs change while this is still current technology, I can always add one later on.
