frankly why pay more?

That's a pretty fast computer comes quickly unwrapped that works great! I was really scared to start for the first time so much maligned Windows 8.1 and everything is easy!
I switched from Windows XP to 8.1 without any problem: just simply change the startup to avoid interface for touch screens and we are left with a compliant system, always cheerful, simple, original configured as I love: no paranoid stuff like I had seen with Vista.
Connect to my Ethernet and WiFi was extremely simple. In fact as soon as one enters the control panel we find ourselves in Windows XP if not even 2000! At Micro $ soft was not changed these menus dating back 15 years!
When the PC itself: it is thin, light, nice, pretty, completely quiet with a beautiful view ... I tested the HDMI terminal by connecting it to my TV 32 'and it's a super large screen to watch videos or photos!
Paid 299 Euros in May 2014: frankly why pay more?
Two criticisms remain:
- The vast applications of slow start despite the presence of 4 GB of RAM (the fault to Windows 8?)
- USB sockets bodywork board: I use a wireless mouse with mini dongle which still forms a 1 cm projection which puts at risk the moment I handled it and especially when it comes to storing in the bag.
