Pros: The machine runs stable and the case is sturdy. It has a nice look to it. Overall it's an easy build if you are used to building PCs.

Cons: Installed 4 Gb of memory which the specs say is max ..the machine recognizes 4 gb installed but on windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit it says only 3 Gb are usable. I posed a question to newegg asking if this was a 64 bit processor and was told it is but there are no drivers that I could find anywhere for the chipset to support 64 bit. Had 64 bit Win 7 installed but had to downgrade to 32 bit Win 7 to make everything work. The added software that comes on the driver CD is of no use to anyone I know. Don't even think about using the included software to update the bios..I did and the machine wouldn't boot. I ended up having to make a bootable flash drive and roll back the bios to an earlier version to make it boot again. The version I used is on their site currently.

Overall Review: Besides the issues I mentioned, the machine seems to be running well and is fast enough for what it is. It operates with very little noise and runs cool. The SSD I put in it costs more than the whole barbones unit but makes it faster. I built this machine for a customer because I have built other foxconn systems and they standup to use for a long time.

Pros: none yet

Cons: I bought this memory on newegg.com on the 6th of November and received a confirmation email the next day saying that there was a tracking number but there wasn't. I then waited until the 12th of November and still didn't have a tracking number so I emailed the seller. They replied on the 13th saying that the package was accepted by the USPS in China on the 12th. So, either they waited for me to email them and complain before they put the package in the mail or it takes 6 days for them to initialize shipment. Either way, I feel the delay is completely unacceptable.

Pros: none yet

Cons: They included a 220V power adapter instead of a 110V adapter so I can't use it in the United States without another adapter of some sort. I am very impatient so now I am wanting to kick my own rear end for not reading the reviews first. Let's hope their support is top notch. I will be more cautious when ordering in the future...

Pros: case looks ok and is cheap

Cons: The lil flapper for the cd rom drive pops off the case when the cd rom opens and the power supply burned out in 1 month to the day.

Pros: The OS works great once installed on a modern platform

Cons: Check this out! I just built a new system and installed this software on it from a fresh HD. If you try to do the same rather than upgrade--when you get to the product key screen--if it will not accept the PK that it came with try hitting next without entering the PK at all--worked for me!

Overall Review: trying to save fellow system builders some time :)

Pros: I have built one of these before and everything worked great. On this one everything looked to be in good shape but no dice.

Cons: The machine randomly shuts down with no Windows errors whatsoever. I loaded Windows & home on it. That process took a couple hours because the system kept shutting down in all different phases of the install. After Windows was loaded, I tested the system for a few hours with no issue. All at once the system started randomly shutting down again...it's running kool and the memory and HD tested fine....

Overall Review: sombody burned the box on me so when I sent it back in a different box to newegg they wouldn't accept it. It has now been over 2 weeks since the start of the process and my customer is really upset about it. Hopefully Foxconn support won't be a nightmare.
