This is my first Windows based computer in years. I had a Mac that I loved, and originally was going to buy another one. This computer is amazing. I love that it's a touch screen and can switch to a tablet. It's super easy to navigate, the keyboard feels like a Mac, and I love the slim design.

This is rather an expensive machine, however I had to return it twice. First I got it and the minute I turned it on, I noticed a horrible sound coming from the fans. I immediately took it back to the shop and got a replacement laptop.

Bought this PC direct from HP to upgrade from my Surface Pro 4 because I use the pen for note taking and wanted the accuracy that a tilt pen provides together with the high screen resolution of this HP.

Used this machine as a software developer and it ran extremely hot - so hot that it basically burned the internal components including the SSD which contained all my data and set me back weeks of work. I unfortunately was overseas at the time and was pretty much left high-and-dry.
