Of course I do, but at the end of the day, he's stated in his listing that this computer is powerful, and capable of running multiple programs at once without a problem, while also saying that with a dedicated graphics card, it will run games smoothly.
The truth is, it takes a long time to load up a simple application like paint, videos run badly (as in choppy) with a dedicated 1GB graphics card. For example, if you have youtube open and you try and open paint, the whole thing starts to almost slowly die before having one final huff to open it, and that's just with paint...
It came with a 3 months warranty, and on the listing it says he accepts returns.
To be honest I'm sure it catches lots of people who aren't that knowledgeable about computers out, when in the listing it states that it's powerful and can do etc etc. You believe them as you wish to buy it. He's using badly outdated CPUs to make a massive profit from the looks of it.
EDIT: He's offered to upgrade it to a Quad core for £40, is this worth it?.. I ask this as in the CPU hierarchy it says high end models only for the Fast Category.
