Even though
Great computer, all I could ask for. It has only one flaw and I believe it to be software instead of hardware. The pointer pad has went insane and goes where it wants after the computer has been on a while. At bootup it is fine. But I cannot fault the system as a whole on that.

Great Experience
From Beginning to End, I was pleasantly surprised how well my buying experience went. I read a few questionable reviews but got the feeling the buyers just didn't understand the process. Great Product, Great Service, Great Experience. Thanks!

Love this labtop hated the ups/us customs delivery
So this labtop runs games like a champ. Sims 4, Civilization VI runs great and smooth. The systems requirements web site can you run it Says the labtop can run games like pubg, arma 3, and Dayz. I have yet to try but I will soon. The only reason I didn't give a 5 star is because my package was stopped at the customs office and it made the package wait another 2 days but my railing should be 4.6/5 stars

shattered"" dreams
The process of applying for the line of credit, and then the order, was simple enough. Unfortunately, on the day it was delivered, I did what anyone would do... I plugged it in to charge so I could power it on and see what my hard work had earned me. That when I discovered that the screen was shattered and that I wouldn't be able to use it. I sent an email to this company, but by the time I had received a response, I had already contacted the manufacturer and sent it to the repair facility. The next day I finally got an email from mdg stating they were sending UPS to pick up the laptop. I explained it wasn't inky possession, but they sent someone anyways.
