Re new box
Looks real nice Dr J . Myself as a Bottom feeder replaced my ancient Pentium Hp a few years ago with a slightly used old low end processor Windows 7 HP Slim line but newer 2 year old Slimline dual core Pentium with monitor for $125 Seems good enough for me to troll the internet and listen and watch videos on You tube. I like it better than my I3 windows 8.1 Laptop. I also have Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on the old desk top that I can opt to boot into instead of Windows and occasionally like to check how many hard drive sectors are bad. Seems like quite a few sectors are bad for the drive to still be considered ok though. Probably have a newer desk top in a year I figure.
Most of the Windows machines sold now have something called secure boot that prevents you from installing any other OS along side windows
