hp a1730n desktop computer Review

When you initially buy the computer it is filled with hp bloatware.  2 gigabytes of ram in todays standard is nothing and the computer pushes no processing power. The case on thee computerr is horribly contructed not allowing any airflow.  The media card reader constantly has errors.  The computer originaly came with an oem copy of Windows Vista. With Vista installed the computer couldnt execute basic tasks.  After 2 years of being released windows 7 arrived which helped out the conputer a little. The value of the computer wasnt much better 2 years ago the hp a1730n cost around $1800 now I can go get a compaq with twice the amount of power for around $300.  I wouldnt suggest this computer building a computer is a much better road to take.  Integrated graphics are horrible for gaming and the motherboard is stripped down with a lack of sata and PCI-E slots. The computer rates a 3.0 in the windows rating index and it doesnt even deserve that.
