I picked up one of these and have been impressed. A little small in the s reen for these old eyes but hasn't skipped a beat. Got one of the earlier models and was able to remove the cell phone modem and install a second solid state drive. Most ham apps are there now. No complaints for $60. I happen to check Micro Center's website last night and it was not listed under the cheapest laptop filter.
I've used it with WSJT-X & DXLABSUITE for portable and POTA operating. It hasn't skipped a beat and sure beats carrying another full size laptop when on business travel. Can't load ham radio programs on the company laptop.
Thats good question, I was unable to get into its recovery system partition. I no longer have this system because mine bit the dust hard. I am looking for a better cheap and light POTA computer.
I see you mentioned Orlando are you from Orlando I'm on Oakridge
Tank,Enjjoyed~ well view!;))

Wait, at least I added a Tank Radio sticker on mine.
Don't worry, its on there now
Does basic program and ham stuff. No bloat ware. Gaming computer, forget it.
Couldn't say it better myself.
Nice video Tank, You unbox stuff just like I do!
Lol, with the throwing of the boxes and everything.
I will be very curious to see how it works out for ft8 and POTA. On the surface it looks good. But the proof will be in the field. Thx, Vic de KE8JWE

@@aa3konthego The price sure does make it a no brainer too.
Great comment, you'll see in the next video

Are the keys good for big hands?
its a smaller keyboard. Becarefully, there is no support for the manufacture.
Not bad at all for the price.
Agreed

Install Brave.
I will look into that, i should Try to find a light weight POTA system again. My Eval laptop died.
Should I buy it ?
I was starting to think that I liked you and then you say shit like "I don't have a knife." 😬
I keep losing it. Or using it and leaving it out. I am Texas, knives are an everyday carrier.
These laptops are shitty. Bought two, and dead now....
Mine is dead and gone. I do an update in a later video.
