Costco shop card for the people that are able to shop at the Costco website is the same as cash. Unless someone has card and never shops at costco, nor their website, which sounds odd.

But this "feature" - 15.6" Touchscreen LCD with LED-Backlit Anti-Glare HD (1366 x 768) Display - is worth a $200-$300 devaluation on a 15.6" screen. Must be a very crappy screen.

Did they have spare panels and just decided to slap it on whatever they can? On a laptop this big, why would they have such a crappy resolution? Wonder if that's a mistake.

The problem isn't just the resolution itself, it's that this resolution at this size guarantees that it's a TN panel, with very washed out colors and poor viewing angles.

Well you could always plug it into a monitor to get a better resolution.

Because of the overall low stats on the computer. Most people use this type of machine for web browsing and maybe word processing and windows s works great for that. It is very easy to switch windows s to the regular version of windows though. Great deal except for the screen, lol.

To promote MS apps.

Easy to get out of it thankfully.

Dual Core as well. It should work well enough but the 1125g4 is definitely better.

Not sure why they made this so basic to sell at Costco.

The price is not bad if you shop at Costco.
