Pros:

I had this computer for about 5 months (see other thoughts for the blessing in disguise) and the only thing it had going for it was that it was an upgrade in processing power from the Dell I bought 5 years prior

Cons:

blue screened within the first week I had it right in the middle of doing some coding and restarted. Didn't happen again for about 2.5 months and then happened regularly about 1-3 times a month until I no longer owned it.

Overall Review:

I was going to try selling this computer, but then one day it magically disappeared. Ok, my car was stolen and it was in the trunk. This allowed me to claim it through insurance and put the money I got back towards a nice new laptop from a different company(one which will not be named for the sake of abiding by the rules). DO NOT BUY THIS ONE.
