## Description

desertcart.com: Dell Optiplex 3040 Micro Computer Mini Tower PC, Intel Quad Core i5-6500T, 8GB DDR4 RAM, 256GB SSD, Win 11 Pro (Renewed) : Electronics

Review: Easiest setup I've ever experienced - I'm still loading up Windows 11 on this device. So, I'm a little before the fact with this review. While Windows loads, I thought I would use the time to write this review. The initial setup was very fast and simple and worry free. A few minutes later: Windows loaded in about 20 minutes. It was the longest wait time. I then had to enter my id and password for both Microsoft and google, which I use a lot. All in all, the total setup times was less than an hour, and most of it was waiting for Windows 11 to download. This mini/micro PC from Dell is wonderful for the low price of $128. It has ports for HDMI and USB. I have this connected to a 32-inch smart TV as a monitor using HDMI. It has both HDMI and Display port. This a great little Mini PC for the price. I would buy it again.
Review: Good Buy - Got it for my boyfriend’s dad. He is old school and doesn’t need a fancy one. Works as if brand new and is still fast enough.
