### Worth Knowing Before Buying
- No operating system included: FreeDOS/DOS means you will need to install Windows or Linux yourself and purchase any required license separately.
- Display may vary: Many budget units ship with the TN 250-nit 45% NTSC panel, which is noticeably weaker than the IPS option.
- Limited ports: No card reader, no Thunderbolt, and USB speeds top out at 5Gbps.
- Good upgradability: Includes two DDR5 SODIMM slots plus an M.2 storage bay, which is uncommon at this price point.
