PC question

Milkman2012 · 2013-01-13 21:59:39

Hi there is a pc for sale on living social.ie, an android laptop. Am not a pc expert but would this be suitable to use as a home pc, does it have data storage, not sure but if I read the data correctly it has 3G storage. Also does it come with a software package for data processing like work etc?

3gb is very little, and there aren't many good programs for word processing on android. Unless you are good with compters it will be a lot more hastle than its worth.

Okay just to clarify.

This is not a laptop, think of it as a tablet, with a keyboard attached.

Perhaps fine for kids, or some basic web browsing, but beyond that it's simply not going to cut it. I would avoid personally.
