Pros: None...Computer could work as a doorstop. I used the same computer while working at a top firm doing IT Security consulting a couple years back. The computer if sold with properly licensed and acquired software, should work very well. However, that's not the case here.

Cons: Vendor who sold the refurbished computer sold the computer using black market software where Microsoft will not activate the computer. This essentially makes the computer a worthless brick, requiring another $150 to upgrade to Windows 7. Had I known this would happen I wouldnt waste the time as this was to be a Christmas gift for my son who wants to learn to program and create programs. Cant make up for the time wasted dealing with this system.

Overall Review: I would never purchase from this vendor, ever again!
