The 2Ghz quad-core processor and 4GB of RAM mean that they can actually run Windows 8/10 reasonably well. Unlike some other ultra-cheap, small PC's, it's got an HDMI output, a USB 3.0 slot, a DVD-RW, and it uses an actual power supply (not a laptop...

The hard drive is slow. No built-in WiFi. The keyboard and mouse are literally just tossed into the box so they bounce around during shipment. Like a couple of other reviewers, I had to reattach a few keys that had fallen off the keyboard. Some...

Arm with Intel Pentium J2900 and 1TB HD, 4GB (I added extra 2GB RAM DDR3L). This is adequate of running more than basic tasks. Run VirtualBox, Add dual boot with Linux Mint, Run Autocad Fast boot (window 8.1 with EFI took 30 secs to load window) Linux...

EFI is a bit tricky to setup with. Need to update BIOS from ACER. After that everything works fine.

great speed quad core processor for 149! sure, had to remove some bloatware but no way does that take more than a couple hours. uninstall trial of office and install libre office and a free antivirus and you are good to go. Mine had a year warranty...

No real cons, it's not a gaming machine, but if you add a wifi stick it will do all of your basic web searches with ease. Perfect for a friend or relative looking for an almost new machine for cheap

Decent hardware for a low end casual PC or HTPC.

Mine came with the "Bing" version of Windows 8.1, and was full of Acer and third-party bloatware. It took about 4 to 6 hours to remove all of it. Several weeks later, operating system could not be found on boot. Had to factory reset, which in turn...

Cheap price for a PC with this much power

This was supposedly refurbished. It came with a broken keyboard - 5 keys loose in the box, 2 of those broken. The mouse was so "used" that the finish is worn off the top of the mouse where your hand rests on it. The mouse and keyboard were loose in the...

Really nice looking computer...just like new. Excellent price. Latest operating system and the computer is pretty fast. After problems developed the seller was helpful in making arrangements to have unit returned for free and issuing a refund.

Computer starting automatically shutting down after a few days of use. Could not determine what problem was so ended up returning with a prepaid shipping label for refund. Sadly replacement computer was not available.
