You do not want the i3, go with i5 minimum and 8GB RAM minimum, I'd doulbe the RAM to 16GB if it were mine.
WTF are all those resources doing? I used to be able to surf the web, play basic games, and use Office with way less than that. Like an 800mhz processor and 2GB of RAM.
Would an option be to format the HDD and reinstall Windows (if there is a restore/install disc (disk?)), just to help alleviate the bloating?
Heh. Browsers suck way more resources than they used to. Firefox especially.WTF are all those resources doing? I used to be able to surf the web, play basic games, and use Office with way less than that. Like an 800mhz processor and 2GB of RAM.
Something is wrong BBI. I have about 1500 Dells in my pool at work, and they work well. Even the "PoS" $300 I just bought off ebay works great. (its a one off that I didnt want to sink $1000 into)
you can get a bad one from time to time. See if you can return it for a replacement.
I work for a small consulting shop and we still recommend Dell, but we buy the business lines (OptiPlex, Latitude, Precision...). I think the issue is more buying the home line and from Best Buy, so you are getting Dell's home bloat plus Best Buy's bloat.
lol. right click unpin...WTF is hybrid sleep?
The sad thing is I used to be completely up to date on this stuff, back when Windows 2000 was the hip new kid on the block. I can't even figure out the start up menu on this new Windows. WTF do I want to see an Xbox account (that I don't have) prominently displayed, but have to dig for Wordpad?
I did the reset, got all the updates done, and installed Chrome. I also uninstalled some junk software. It's at 70GB used. My normal laptop only has an 80GB HDD. Ridiculous.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go yell at the kids on my lawn.
