This is really a desktop replacement. Been using it hooked up to my monitor as my main computer. The processor, RAM, video card, etc., are still near top of the line.You can play most games without any compromises, run latest Adobe CS suites (not included), almost anything with little to no degradation. Would be a great gift for a student interested in gaming, media work, and of course just plain old word processing. ;)Technical specs are below. In very good condition, hardly ever traveled outside of my home office with it. Fresh reinstall of Windows 7. Power adapter and Built NY carrying case included.Processor
