These exquisite fully-featured free office software suites suffice for all academic and professional work (they have a wordprocessor, spreadsheet, presentation software, diagram creating software, and more, and are used by over 100 million people), and can read and save files in Microsoft Office formats e.g. .doc, .docx, .rtf, .txt, .xls, .xlsx, .xlm, and so on. - A power lead is also available for £1. * Weight and dimensions: weight approx. 8-9kg, dimensions approx. 35cm x 38cm x 10cm HARDWARE & SOFTWARE USAGE The computer works right "out of the box", having an OEM installation of Windows 7 Professional: just enter the Windows 7 serial key, set up a username and password and off you go! The computer meets the following criteria for legally refurbished PCs: * The Windows CoA exists * The Windows CoA is specifically for refurbished PCs - the original CoA is no longer required (but may still be present), only the refurbished PC CoA * The Windows operating system actually exists [and yes, it is in English (foreign operating systems cannot be changed very easily - for example, with a Chinese operating system, you are locked in, unless you can upgrade the language pack, but you will need to know Chinese to begin with, in order to install the upgrade)] * The Windows operating system matches the CoA * A recovery path exists - in this case, a recovery partition. To activate the recovery partition, follow the instructions displayed at every startup. Recovery options in case of hard drive failure at some point in the distant future: * When setting up your Windows user account, you will be prompted to create a recovery disc / USB stick. You are strongly advised to do so, as this will be your legal recovery medium (that is, if the hard drive itself has failed - the hard drive already contains a recovery partition which can be activated at startup by following the instructions displayed at every startup). Using the recovery medium, you can set up Windows on a replacement hard drive, using the refurbisher CoA as product key. [Please note: A person may cut costs and refurbish a PC without the appropriate licensing, simply restoring the Windows operating system privately, for free. This can result in all manner of problems, e.g. if counterfeit Windows discs are used.] Additionally: * The startup sequence is fine - there are no error reports * The optical drive works and if applicable, can write to all relevant optical media * The computer is physically cleaned Security: The CPU supports virtualisation, BIOS & mainboard permitting. Each computer has had its hard disk completely erased before operating system installation, not just formatted - some viruses can survive full reformatting. You can be sure that our machines are virus-free when you purchase them. Windows: The operating system is Windows 7 Professional - not a lower version of Windows 7. Windows 7 Professional has optional Windows XP mode through virtualisation. You will need to download and install "Windows XP Mode" from the "Download Center", and then download and install "Windows Virtual PC" from the "Download Center". Lower versions of Windows 7 (e.g. Windows 7 Home Premium) do not offer a Windows XP mode. More features of Windows 7 Professional over lower versions of Windows 7 (this list is not exhaustive): * Windows 7 Professional allows you to connect to your host computer from another computer * Windows 7 Professional allows network backup / restore * Windows 7 Professional has Encrypting File System (EFS), allowing encryption of files by unauthorised users or programs not in possession of the appropriate cryptographic key
