Please don't waste your money like I did Piece of junk!

Pros This machine looks good and comes loaded with features.  It's small and compact.
Cons Don't even bother.  If you're looking for a small machine, just buy a laptop. 
Recommended it? No
I couldn't have been more excited to buy my very first brand new computer.  This computer looked good, had great specs, and came with a widescreen lcd monitor. 

I got it home and to my joy, it came preloaded with all sorts of games and software including Norton AntiVirus and a trial of MS Office.  It also comes with Windows Vista.


My joy lasted exactly 13 days.

On the 13th day, I started my lovely new toy, only to find that the power supply had blown.  Thirteen days into my ownership.  The standard power supply is woefully undersized for this machine.  Good luck to you if you try to replace it yourself.  Because of its compact design, you have to take apart the ENTIRE machine just to replace the power supply.  This machine looks good, but performs badly.  It ALWAYS ran slowly and locked up, and again, it was less than two weeks old.  My opinion?  Don't bother.
