Ieee Computer Society Microsoft Software

I am very happy with this computer. Microsoft makes transferring everything a breeze.

Excellent computer, far better than any Microsoft based computer that I have used

Did you know that you can't even get the computer to work without a Microsoft Login now? Super annoying.

Good system. Requires software purchase agreement with Microsoft. A hidden cost.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Microsoft 365 gives me the software that I need for business and personal work.

Microsoft Office was easy to install and is the foundation of much of the work that I do. Having access to the software on my home computer during COVID-19 has been a real asset.

I bought this because I get all my tv over the air. Recording a show necessitates using the dvd recorder, and it's getting old, and is not truly reliable. This tv tuner worked as soon as I plugged it into the usb port on my computer. I hooked up to the coaxial cable from my attic antenna, and I get a better picture than I do on my regular tv. It picked up all the channels and using it with Microsoft Media Center is easy as pie. I like Microsoft Media Center better than the software that came with the device, but that software works OK as well. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to cut the cable and still have a personal video recorder.

I've been using Microsoft Surface laptops for personal and business use for years, and I've got no complaints. I like my hardware and software to be made by the same company so there's less bloatware. I don't use the laptop to game, edit videos, or anything intensive. (Unless you count having multiple tabs of Google Chrome open.) The machine runs smoothly. No complaints there. The angular metal exterior looks and feels great. It says professional without being as boxy as a ThinkPad.

This is the first security software beyond Microsoft Defender in quite a while. Today, it popped up a news article about the VA health website being hacked when I went to log in. Older antivirus software seemed to add so much overhead, I could hardly use the computer but this works quietly in the background and I have noticed no impact on speed.

I was amazed that it booted right up, synced to my microsoft account, and loaded my preferred software programs seamlessly. It's been running smoothly every since, too.
