Bought this on Amazon 2 mths ago. Shipment arrived on time, and in good conidition.
Unit was really easy to install and configure, and works like a dream out of the box. Everyone at home loves using it. Great value, and AMD performance does not seem to be any inferior to Pentium on this one.
Small glitch with the system just a week ago, system just refused to boot up and had to call tech support, they quickly determined that it was due to static electricity and MS Windows. Unplugged and plugged the power supply, rebooted, installed the new MS Service pack, and it has been working well since.
Would have given this 5 stars if not for this problem.

This computer was defective from the moment I first turned it on. I never could load anything on it because it was constantly shutting down and giving me blue error screens. I called HP support within an hour of opening the darn thing and could barely understand the person I was talking to. She was no help but did open a case number for me. Gee, thanks, but I would prefer a computer that actually works. I am in the process of packing it up to send back to Amazon. At least then I’ll only lose 15% of the purchase price instead of the entire amount.

I had this computer for less than a month and was more relieved than surprised when it died.
There were numerous errors with the touchsmart software that HP puts on the machine. It would open each time the monitor went on standby, but never completely load, rendering the computer inoperable until it was restarted. After a couple weeks, the machine started intermittently failing to power on. I called support and spoke to a completely worthless individual from India who suspected my surge protector (even though the 3 other pieces of hardware plugged into it still worked). I spontaneously powered on while I was on the phone so I replaced the surge protector with a UPS the next day and the machine worked for another 4 days before completely surrendering to the inevitable and refusing to ever come to life again.
In all fairness, I liked the design of the unit, specifically the way the wires were all hidden out of sight and the mordern look of the sleek black cpu/display. The wireless keyboard was decent as was the mouse. The touchscreen was OK, but they could learn a lot from the iphone as the accuracy was quite lacking and hitting a small target such as a web browser tab was sometimes difficult. Apparently Apple is way ahead on that technology as it seems much easier to tap what you’re aiming for on the ipod touch and iphone.
I sent the dead HP back and ended up buying Gateway’s comparable touch screen model. After a week, it seems better than the HP in most aspects. The HP had a better keyboard and mouse than Gateway and to me a more appealing look. But frankly if the Gateway only makes it a year, there’s still no other comparison that matters. It’s going to be a long time before I buy another HP computer.

It only work for 10 minutes and when black the screen it was DOA(Death on Arrival). Very bad experience with HP Customer service, if you are International like me (from Panama city Central America), never buy an HP in Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart ,or in any United States Retailer as they will tell you that there Warranty is only good in North America, please BUY DELL or Sony as this companies really honor there warranties internationally. Please dont BUY HP ALL IN ONE Touchsmart , they are the worst computer on market.I spoke with HP office in Panama and they told me that, they are not able to do nothing in my computer, so I decided to throw it to the GARBAGE

This is a great computer. 20″ screen is perfect size for me, the screen is bright and easy on the eyes. Love the wireless keyboard and mouse, takes up very little space on my counter. The sound quality from the speakers are the best I have experienced on any computer I`ve owned.Great Buy!
