What's everyone's opinion on this laptop? What is your favorite size 15 or 17 inch?

This is a nice computer,but I like this one sold on HP's site better, Product # V3A33AV_1 . The display has a higher resolution, and you can adjust the font in windows 10 to read text.

The wireless card is 2x2, meaning it has two send and receive antennas. It will connect better to your wireless router with a Gigabit network interface 10/100/1000. Comcast Cable has recently increased the speed of the network for most customers to 100 Mbps. You could enjoy the speed service you are buying.

I would upgrade the RAM in this box to 12GB. You may want to contact HP with any questions.

I would order from the HP site .. They have better computers with better features. This one on QVC does not excite me at all.

Not unless you do office work from home.

I use Office 365. I like Outlook to manage my emails. I want LOL, I have used this program since the 90's.

This is a link to some free Office software. I use Google Docs. All you need is an GMail address. http://www.techradar.com/news/software/applications/best-free-microsoft-office-alternatives-5-suites-to-save-you-money-1139295

I would use a free program that lives on your computer like "Outlook", and the Google Docs.

My son uses Google Docs and said the same thing. What free programs or downloads are there and where can I find them. Does MS offer any free downloads? I have only really used Word in the past. My only concern is if anyone would send me anything that was written on Word. The host said I couldn't download it if that would happen. I usually get PDF's anyway.
