I thought I would use it as a kids laptop - all it would need to do is run Minecraft and a few other basic games, access some kid web sites and run a word processor. I am happy to report you can run a word processor. Okay you can access kid web sites. Or you can run a high-end internet security suite with parental controls turned on.

This is probably the worst computer ever with the worst processor ever. It would load up amazon in a html format. Worst part is, 3 days after I bought one, the wireless connection gave out in it and I had to call tech support. WORST 4 HOURS OF MY LIFE!
