[QUOTE="TacomaJD, post: 589910, member: 1780"] Man there's so much to learn about pc's when it comes to making a good purchase, it's worse than car shopping. When I bought my laptop, I wanted the best bang for $500-600. Intel Core i5 processor doesn't mean they are all the same, there are different generations like cars. I bought my pc last year just as the new Broadwell processor came out, the upgrade form it predecessor, the Haswell processor. As stated before, the SSD is a better option than the traditional HDD, but mine has an HDD and still flies compared to my previous pc's. Google SSD vs HDD to learn more. I think mine has 1 TB of storage and 8GB of RAM, running Windows 8.1 and I am hesitant to upgrade to Windows 10 just yet. I like 8.1 pretty good for the basic stuff I use mine for, mostly school and general web use. Read up on RAM, I wouldn't get a pc that had any less than 6GB of RAM. Before I bought this Lenovo, I gave $300 for an HP low grade core i3 from Walmart, it was slower than my 9 year old Dell was before it died. I returned it to Walmart after a couple weeks and got my money back. Thank sweet baby jeezus for their return policy, that pc was worthless even for basic web browsing! [/QUOTE]
