Full User Summary
The HP S3020n desktop is easy to set up. The unit comes with a wireless PCI card preinstalled. Connecting to a wireless network was simple. The unit takes up very little space and can be positioned vertically or horizontally. It runs fairly quiet and fast when using the 1 GB RAM and integrated video for business use. (Running MS Office 2007 on Vista.) No need to upgrade, yet. HP, Norton, and MS have added their usual panel of automatic security, update and maintenance tools. It took a while to calm down the initial startup "nag screens."

I was looking for a desktop which is small and cute. I found this one and it was a love at first sight. The config is pretty decent with, Athlon 64 X 2 3800 2gHz, 250GB hard drive SATA, 1GB RAM, Lightscribe DVD writer, NVIDIA 6150 onboard Graohics card, VISTA HOme Premium etc. It has 1 USB in front and 4 on the back. CD/DVD drive is vertical for a change. Note that it doesn't come with a monitor. As the graphics card uses the RAM too, you need to upgrade the RAm to 2GB for better Aero performance. You can also upgrade the Graphics card in the PCIe X16 slot however, it can only take half height (low profile) cards which isn't cheap and not too many available. There is only VGA output and no DVI. Overall I liked the performance. It can handle 4-5 different tasks simultaneously. Recommended if you can get it with some offer like free monitor or rebates as right now it retails for ~ $579.

I had waited for long time to get the right system for me and when i saw this i thought thats what i wanted for a year is right there.Also if you need a second or third PC for the kids to use for everyday multimedia tasks, the s3020n is worth giving it a try . they will enjoy it.
