I needed a computer. I pondered many options. With pray, I decided on the hp desktop which I have now. I'm so very pleased. It was a healthy investment. It works so well and makes my time on the computer much more pleasant. It's the 1st I've ever purchased. All the rest were from friends, a library and a gift. It is definitely an investment due to my financial position. Again, I'm so very thankful to have it.
Fast desktop. Fast processor, like the 14th generation I 3. Excellent memory with DDR-5. Downloads are superfast with excellent graphics. Easy setup took a few minutes. All Hp computers are easy to operate. Ample storage for what I'm using it for. Overall a very good computer for an I 3.
The computer came with Windows 11 installed. I'm an old man and hate wasting what time I have left learning new stuff when old stuff works just fine. I hate Windows 11. Every change from Windows 10 that I've encountered is a step back. Before M'soft ended W10 support, I download W10 installation media and W10 drivers. Now I'm try to work up the nerve to install Windows 10. Besides familiarity, another upside is that M'soft won't be bothering me with updates.
Reasonable size with a fast ssd drive. Ample ram and various ports for external devices. I just can't get used to not having a cd drive or a slot for a sd card reader, needed to purchase seperately. Except for these disappointments, I would have given it five stars.
More and more features are being removed from the computer. No longer can I attached a VGA monitor and there is not a port for flash drives to download pictures. I do not use the Cloud.
