Great everyday desktop

This machine replaced a failed 7 year old Gateway. Lots of USB ports on the front side. Recessed card reader ports make them hard to see. Included wireless keyboard and mouse probably better than most OEM equipment.

Nice small office printer

This printer was purchased to act as a common printer/scanner in a test center. It works very well on the wireless side there have been no issues and it is pretty stingy with ink.

I purchased this machine to use as a VPN access point to an AMI system. It works great and should be a good entry level computer for anyone who just needs the basics and is not interested in expansion slots etc. As usual with these low priced machines the keyboard pretty much sucks.

Nothing spectacular its an in dash radio. Setup is a breeze, the display (depending on which color you choose) can be difficult to see during daylight hours. The "Broadcast Display" mode works only when the station signal is very strong.

This keyboard works with Samsung Smart TVs. The touchpad seems overly sensitive and at times seems to "confuse" the TV. Good item for the money when purchased on sale.

will this work with an older windows 98 secong gen computer

I have a hunter alignment rack and laser aligner which uses a sony computer tower and we need to put a wireless adapter on to be able to download new drivers and use a newer printer. Or just send to other printer at another station. will one of your adapters work. this one states that its backwards compatible with 802 etc.
Drivers may be an issue

Does it come with Windows 8 or 8.1 installed?

The specs say it comes with Win 8.1, but reading several reviews, it sounds like it comes with Win 8 and you have to install 8.1 yourself. Can someone please verify which version of Windows it comes with?
