Totally Impressed With This PC
My stepdad– who is not at all tech savvy — needed a basic computer for checking his e-mail. He had been using an old laptop his sister had given him, growing more frustrated with its poor performance and overall lack of versatility, so I suggested he upgrade to something better. He did not need, nor was he interested, in a state of the art, hi-tech computer with all the bells/whistles, so I checked out the refurbished computers here on Amazon. This was my first time ordering a renewed PC and I took a leap of faith– given my outstanding, years-long experiences buying from Amazon as well as the 90-day $$ back guarantee — and ordered this HP ProDesk. Took it over to his house yesterday and set it up for him–WAHWAHWEEEWAH, I was blown away by how nice it was, especially for the price. It looked brand new. I had ordered a separate 27″ monitor (will review that as well). Unboxing everything and setting it up took probably 15-20 minutes and consisted of mostly plugging in cables and cords. Although I still gave it 5 stars, it wasn’t all peachy, however, so please be aware of the following: 1. The power cord is really short– I think it was 24″? (I wish I had measured it), and we had to move his desk a significant distance to be closer to the wall outlet — okay, an extension cord would have helped but stepdad just didn’t have one on hand. 2. There was no HDMI port to connect the monitor to the computer — we tried every port on the PC, to no avail. We figured out that the only way to connect monitor to PC was through a VGA cord– not included with either the monitor or the PC. This necessitated a run to Best Buy where thankfully they had such a cord (you guys are the best!), $14.99 and yes, it worked perfectly. When that monitor screen lit up and displayed the Windows logo we both let out a whoop of joy, that’s how good it looked. I went ahead and set up the starting questions for him and we connected the PC with the ethernet cable to his router (or was it the modem? not sure, but it worked) and he was in business. Absolutely fabulous, despite the 2 snafus we encountered with the short power cord and the lack of HDMI port on PC. Totally worth it, and I’m even considering chucking my old PC here at home — which I purchased new, cost over $1000– and “upgrading” to a computer exactly like this one. On an amusing side note– the box that the computer came in is the perfect size for an adult cat to sleep in. As soon as I took the PC out and into the home office, within 5 minutes, Fluffy was in that box sound asleep, on top of the packing materials. Highly recommend this product! Even if you don’t have a cat! 🙂

Está computadora la compré para mi mamá, ya que ella no ocupa programas pesados y solo usa internet para ver videos, se me hizo una buena oferta. La velocidad de respuesta que tiene es normal, sirve para cosas escolares básicas y de oficina igual. Si estás buscando una computadora para juegos, esta no es para ti, ya que no cuenta con una gráfica adecuada más que los integrados. El gabinete es algo pequeño, para el espacio que se tiene es adecuado.

El ordenador funciona de maravilla después de haberlo reparado porque el vendedor me vendió un aparato roto.
