"A computer that's actually fun to use"
Pros: The touchscreen is so easy to use that I'm using the computer for pictures and music, quick checks of the weather and streaming video. Not just email and word processing like I used to only do.
Cons: Sure wish it had more than just one audio line out so I could connect a 5.1 speaker system.
Summary: It was so easy to use that I could not help but download some music (it figured out what album the songs were from and labeled them for me) and family photos (just touch one to fill the screen or swipe your finger to scroll through the album).
The wireless mouse and keyboard allow for lots of movement around my desk and there's even a light under the screen to make it easier to see the keyboard-brightness is switchable. It has Bluetooth built in, which I thought I'd never use, and after linking my phone found it is super easy to upload/download pictures and music.
No cables or other connections required: one plug for power to the computer and that would be it if my printer had a wireless link. It doesn't so I actually have TWO wires running through the built-in cable management system. You should have seen the back of all my previous computers.
I actually bought this the first time I saw it in the store and replaced a desktop that had not melted down yet. I am very, very happy with it.
