  3. Run away! The Celeron is a Slow ... very slow chip and 4 gb of ram is really bad. 16gb minimum and i5 or better or AMD chip. Also HP stands for Horrible Products.

    1. It is sad but true. This once great company took exactly one female CEO to run it into the ground.

      FYI, HP even 15 years ago had, (and so probably still has) a carbon usage meter built in to tell you your carbon footprint.

      Pretty sure it is there so that windows can use it and other left wing software to force you to buy PC operating time. Pretty sure it is meant to tie in with the carbon credit scheme that our traitorous government wants to inflict on We The Disenfranchised People.

  5. Better install Linux on it if you want it to run well.

  6. My 23 HP Pavillion still chugging away as well as it ever did. Kind of like my old flip phone from the same era that holds a charge for years in the sock drawer.

    1. So are mine, their usage being relegated to guests and miscellaneous entertainment.

      However those two top of the line HPs I bought for work quit being relevant for that purpose less than a year from their respective build dates.

      And they can not be updated. No room for power supplies or modern video card upgrades, so effectively they are doorstops. (Well, for that and erroneous online posting...)

      I built a custom rig, updated it's video cards twice and it still chugs along 14 years later. I just now built it's successor and am awaiting an electrician to get it online. (Check my home circuits)

      I'll never buy another HP product as long as I live.

      I called their sales office years ago and asked them if they could tell me why their lp3065 at half the price of an NEC PA MultiSync of the same size was a better deal. I already had one, and wanted to know what they thought was the difference between their competition.

      They couldn't answer questions about their own product let alone NEC. I ended up buying the NEC which blew away the LP3065 in every way.

      Bye, bye HP!

  7. It's not how much RAM it has (it never has a max amount) but how much can it hold. Recently asked my old system (Pavilion)how much could it handle, and installed it. ~48megs! Open tabs out the wazoo!
