The speakers should suffice for typical movie, music, and gaming needs.

    Ergonomics: Features of the keyboard, mouse, labeling, and LED indicators were not well-designed, so it's not especially comfortable or convenient to use. The keyboard and mouse are both wireless, adding to convenience when placing them. The mouse is not as comfortable to use as others. You can't replace the hard drive or add a new one. The power button is hard to access.

    Useful features and attributes on this model include: The spacious 1TB hard drive offers plenty of room for storing your music, photos, and movies.
