Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: A 5 Star Recommendation Comment: I just flat out needed to upgrade my PC because of the system requirements needed to run some of the newer software for digital photos and scrapbooking and games. I am so pleased with the performance and the small footprint of this PC, I would recommend it as a good buy for your $. Customer Rating: Summary: A winner in almost all respects. Comment: I bought this computer primarily in order to replace my DVD player. It's small enough to fit in the media cabinet, and having a computer right there, via wireless keyboard and mouse, is absolutely wonderful. It's already set up for surround sound, and hooking up a 42" LCD was very straight forward.
For me the biggest fault is the lack of a Printer port. But if I understand correctly, one can simply get one of the readily available USB to LPT converter cables on the market today.
The graphics are astounding, and although I thought that using the Vista operating system would be quite cumbersome at first, everything on the screen is actually quite practical and natural once you get the hang of it. And this comes from someone who just upgraded from Windows 98.
Vistas is set up as a default to be connected to the Internet. So if you don't plan on using it with the Internet, like me, there are many annoying screens that will keep on popping up until you figure out how to deactivate them.
Besides that, except for maybe a somewhat extended hesitation here or there by the system, it's been smooth sailing. Keep in mind though, that I don't come anywhere near to using the full potential of this computer. Customer Rating: Summary: Great machine for its target audience Comment: I bought this machine for my mom, of grandmother age, and it is perfect for that purpose. I didnt buy it expecting it to be upgradeable, nor does my mom need to run the latest of games, or the largest of monitors. What I was looking for was a compact machine that would fit in her office without taking it over and this box fits the bill. With media slots and a USB adapter on the front panel it satisfied my/her needs. It also seems well built and is pretty attractive as 'puters go. Customer Rating: Summary: Obsolete right out of box! Comment: I owned this PC for four whole days before I returned it. It can not be upgraded. (Except for memory) It might work well as a seldom used second PC or as something used for mainly email or word processing. The video chip in the motherboard is incapable of supporting DirectX 9. DirectX 9 is required for playing such games as The Sims 2. If you never ever want to play a game outside of the ones that come with the Vista OS go ahead and get this. It might be wonderful for you. Vista gives this system a 3.9 out of 10 due to graphics for user experience though so... you be the judge! Customer Rating: Summary: Great product for those looking for a small nimble machine Comment: This is a great for those looking with a machine that they can easily throw on their existing wireless network without hassles. That was a major selling point for me... small + pre-installed wireless means it can go anywhere. The first thing you should do however is update the nVidia drivers from the nVidia website, especially if you have a widescreen lcs. It will resolve the issue of not getting 1440x990. Vista is great, ram is perhaps a bit light, but I havent had any problems yet. Loving this machine and it's compact powerful package.
