- Good points:
- Very fast machine, at a reasonable price.
- Bad points:
-
Windows Vista was corrupt when machine arrived (would not let you install ANY software, including Anti Virus). Fortunately, I reloaded Vista, and machine ran perfectly. Not very good if you don't know what you are doing.
PC has a relatively noisy fan, and very little software (especially as any software preinstalled was lost following reinstallation of Vista).

- Good points:
- The machine is just what I wanted and needed. It is fast and efficient with no problems at all. The tower also looks aesthetically pleasing.
- Bad points:
- I paid someone to set everything up and he couldn't get me on to the internet because the network card was broken. He used something he had with him like an adapter (the cable from the router fitted into this) which fitted into the back of the computer and I am still using this.
