Just about everything is wrong with this Packard Bell 5057. Despite a fast processor this computer system is SLOW. My old club 60 out preforms this machine. To anyone thinking about buying one of these machines or a similar model, DONT. Its comes with all that pre-installed rubbish that you cant get rid of some of it. Bought from PC World i was disappointed right from the start. Their Helpline likes to leave you hanging on the phone for ages costing you money. They replaced the hard drive but its still slow. They dont tell you that the Norton Internet Security expires after 6 months and you have to run your own set of master CD'S off so if their is an initial software problem and you have to re-boot, guess what you have copied the problem.
