Love this computer! Great value. I did add a PCIe video card, which really helps. I recommend this to anyone on a budget. Plays most games and does all apps well.

Every part inside and out appeared brand new. Did not expect this in a refurbished machine. After start up noticed that there was only 2GB of memory. One of the memory modules was not fully seated. Easily fixed. Also the the DVD initially did not show because the SATA cable was not connected. Nice keyboard - Left side has 5 shortcuts to programmed internet addresses. Right side has fully functinal controls for multimedia including ejecting and closing the DVD/CD tray. No problems with Windows Vista including all upgrades. Vista loads/initializes very fast. Nice Machine, quite fast, good performance for the $$$. Also very quiet.

Bit slow in reviewing this machine. On arrival, very few issues, and I DID find that although the door for DVD is a pain, that the included multimedia keyboard actually has eject keys that work to both open and close the door (these are on the right edge). I purchased GEForce 8600GT before it even arrived, and they both arrived together, making opening day a riot. Unit quickly adapted to the card, and automatically bypassed the integral display adapter. NO problems at all to date(some 4 weeks now. THNX Tiger!

Got this desktop two weeks ago. This computer is definitely worth the price. It runs smoothly and there's not a huge amount of bloatware. Albeit there is a couple of issues I have with it. The cd drive door must be shut manually and it takes some time to get used to doing. The graphics card is horrendous especially if you're a gamer. Upgrade that though and it runs games with very little to no lag. Runs Halo PC flawlessly with video settings at the max and Second Life runs at 40-50 fps if you upgrade to the XFX GeForce 8600 GT XXX 256MB PCIe graphics card. I recommend this computer to anyone.

Hard to tell what was refurbished on this machine. It appears brand new, no scratches or signs of wear. Yes, the DVD door is annoying, but the functionality is fine. It's very quiet and I'm very pleased with the machine. A great value - don't be afraid to purchase a refurbished machine.
