I think I have already reviewed this HP Pavilion computer. But I will do so again, as the little Amazon window popped up twice apparently. Unless I accidentally reviewed a different, earlier computer that I bought from Amazon. I’ve been pretty happy with the cheaper machines I’ve purchase through Amazon, but those tended to burn out in a year or two. They were on sale. I don’t recommend buying a desktop computer on sale anymore, they tend to be gone and unusable after a short period of time. In my case, I use them an awful lot for social media, school, other things. So it may be overuse on my part. Still, I think the larger hard drives you get when you spend $1,000 or more on a desktop or laptop are a good idea. If you buy an on sale desktop computer, for example, you might get too small gigabytes of a hard drive, such as under one terabyte. Nowadays, you need at least one terabyte to keep it functioning. I don’t know how long this new HP Pavilion is going to last, but it’s working great so far as now.

This computer cannot be expanded. I bought it as a travelling business system but a hidden file in one drive prevents expansion. HP support staff doesn’t know this. It has two different memory systems, neither can be replaced. Not as fast as other brands in the same price range. Stay away from these Chinese computers!

I used to own a computer systems house. Now long retired I spent two full days trying to install more memory. Even with HP help it was impossible. Stay away.

 I recently switched to HP after being an apple person and I love all of the HP products and the fact that you can buy it from Amazon is a plus. I have this in black and white. This is for my employees and it is a great price. It is not completely light weight but not too heavy. It is a great size and gets the job done especially for employees.
