First to dispute the above reviewer about the upgrade that requires 25 restarts. Not true. This is the update from Touchsmart 3 to Touchsmart 4. There is only 1 (one) update that requires an immediate restart and that's the update installer. While all other updates will ask for a restart after each installation this is optional until you have finished with all the updates that you want. You can cherry pick which updates you want. If all you want is 5 updates you restart after that, or 10 or 20 but you are not required to restart after each one. HP says this at the end of the long list of updates at the bottom of the page. This should have been said at the top. Aside from that the machine is fun to use. It looks beautiful. Has plenty of speed, memory and storage. Cool apps. Built in webcam for Skype and taking pics.Great machine for a teen. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because HP does not warranty the touch screen. Yes, for whatever reason (hardware) if the "touch" feature stops working it is not covered under warranty. I bought my machine from Office Depot and had to buy a warranty from them which did cover the "touch" feature. I called HP to verify and finally after 10 mins. of dodging the question and being put on hold ask a supervisor I was told yes the touch screen was not under warranty. I was told the computer and screen would still be fully functional even without this feature.

This is the computer I could afford. It is a decent machine, for the price. Amazon doesn't tell you, but it comes with some nice touch software from HP for photos, DVDs, movies.This computer was highly rated by the leading consumer reporting agency which tests a bunch of computers and rates them in detail on their non-profit website. The manufacturer Hewlett Packard, and this agency, have the official opinion that rating Apple and Windows is like comparing apples and oranges. This is a useless statement from both of them: either the computer can do what you need it to do, and do it well, or it can't.This computer is not as good as my roommate's Mac Mini, the use of which I have been borrowing for a year. Even though his computer has half the RAM and a third of the drive (which is chock full of his music!) everything I do or want to do, works better on his machine. I play a lot of Flash-based kiddie games over the internet, this is about as good a gamer as I am. This computer needs to use a lot of its power to play these games, and even so I need to sometimes disable all add-ons and extensions on all browsers, even the touch-optimized version of IE8 that comes with the machine. HP technical support calls these games high end, and maybe to this manufacturer (or all PC manufacturers) they are, even though I've been playing them for 5 years now. But this is a medium machine in their line up and a medium high machine in that consumer agency's line up and a Mac Mini is the least of Apple's machines. You do the math.The touchscreen software (touchsmart 4)that you will get with this machine is critical that you update, according to HP. This is a four hour job that requires 25 restarts (yes, really, that's what HPs support told me, and that is how it worked), and also requires some time with their technical help, because the instructions on their website do not work, and the instrustions on the apps themselves do not apply-Windows 7 doesn't allow you to do what they say.That said, the touchscreen is good for me, because I have arthritis in my fingers. I no longer have to stop using my computer when my hand cramps. Hewlett Packard doesn't say, but you need to know, that the screen works best with a little finger oil on it already. Don't wash it unless you need to, and *save* if your cat comes near, because not only will you have to defend your keys from tromping, but a gentle tail sweep across the screen can select an entire paragrach.The computer is an all-in-one. This is good and bad. The monitor you get is better than the ones you could get if you bought separately, it is not surprise that other models in this line by HP have a TV tuner that comes with. And the sound system is great for the price, it is no surprise that other models in this line have the connections to do the whole home theater thing. It is a noisy machine, though. All PCs I have used at various workplaces have been noisy to some degree, but you can keep the tower away from you if you want. Can't do that with this machine. The screen on this thing is huge, so you could move the whole computer away from you and still see it and not hear so much of the noise...but then you couldn't use the touch features as it would be out of reach. Maybe if you weren't a previous Apple user or an audiophile like me, you won't notice the noise, but I am used to the Mac iMacs and the Mini, which only make this much noise if they are just about to die.I haven't tested the camera or microphone yet.
