I want it strictly for the internet and nothing else. Would this be a good purchase?

I would not purchase this tablet. It was very slow and would not connect to internet half the time. DONT BUY!

No, it was too slow, did not download most of the time and not worth the money

Yes, All in one, works Greats too, just be sure to call your internet provider(tech support) to make sure it's compatible with them.

Considering that this item is 14mbps and your average internet connection is around 3mpbs it should be plenty fast for typical internet traffic such as gaming. 200mbps is only slow when you consider something used for direct connections like USB which is around 400mbps+. It's also not as fast as the 802.11b protocol which is around 54mbps. So as far as Internet access goes, it is fast enough. For home networking it is a bit slow.

Based on other customer reviews, I would say no- it does not contain enough Internet for todays most common needs. I would suggest upgrading to something faster- a 9600 baud modem would be good, though a 14,400 would really give you a big boost.

It's a terrific starter laptop!! I don't know anything about the videos but the speed will depend on your internet service ( eg. Verizon Fios has about 3 different levels)

This is good computer for light computing. Facebook games will probably be fine. I have found this is the best value for a good computer.

No this unit is totaly the opposit.With this unit you can use the internet on your tv with out a computer.

This is a good computer and facebook games do not demand much from a PC from a technical stand point, so technically, a cheaper $300 netbook will do the trick there. If you want actual gaming (Counter Strike, Call of Duty Modern Warfare, F.E.A.R. ETC) then you need a different PC since this one has very limited upgrades due to it's small/compact size. If you need a strong Notebook/Laptop for gaming, go with a 15" alienware/dell or a 15' HP

PC is pretty fast. Web surfing will only be as fast as your router if you go wireless. Windows 8 takes getting used to. If you like gaming you might want more RAM.

I highly doubt the sell out will effect any internet except their new opportunity to jack our rates and less competition to go to. (nothing to do with the modem, just my personal rant) It should work fine with your PC.

I only just purchased it, so should be fine, but will check it out! Thanks!

It's a great little machine, but it is NOT gamer capable. That's totally not the market this is focused at - think of this thing as a modern "netbook". It's fine for browsing the web and general "office" apps, but you aren't going to want to run anything beyond web-based games on it.

This PC is definitely sufficient for Internet surfing. And yes, it will run MS Office 2013 - the key question is performance. My observation is performance is completely acceptable.

If your plan covers data, then yes. Having said that, I didn't ever use if for the internet- so I can't tell you how easy/difficult web use is.

It will be fine. Once it's plugged into your network it's all done through the web browser.

Yes but it won't have the highest performance. Good for web browsing and emails.

I think you would find it lacking. It's not really a strong pc. I use it for restaurant pos stuff. It works fine for that, but if I was buying a computer for myself to use daily I would not recommend it.
