this computer is good at times then at other times it isn't. The bad part about this is once it gets old dell will not update my warranty or give me a new one even after i offered to pay for it. i don't have the money to get a new computer. But over all this computer does get the job done at times. it does not have a lot of memory on it and being that it is a old model it wont let me connect to the internet at times. The screen goes out at times. The screen saver goes out at times also to the point where if i move the mouse or push the space bar the screen will not come on. so i have to end up restarting the computer. the mouse that comes with it is the kind with the ball and that don't last very long. so if you want this computer go ahead but get a laser mouse. the speakers are okay it sounds like a low tv sometimes. so the sound is kind of ok. the wires well lets say that there are a lot and i have a toddler so that is never good.  the keyboard that comes with it works sometimes i had to replace it and get a hard drive. the virus scanner that comes with it have a mind of its own. i have it set on a schedule to scan on certain days and times but it does it when it wants. it takes about 2 hours for it to update. but it gets the job done sometimes.
