Mine works fine. Maybe it's downloading/ installing updates in the background. Mine did that.

Received this thing. Appears to be a bit slow under windows 10 - any suggestions? Just to load chrome, etc. takes a few seconds, maybe my expectations too high?

Thank you for that. I just checked my Discover, 5% cash back on Dell Small Business.
If I do the math right:
3% Dell advantage
5% Discover
... on $329
$9.87 + $16.45 = $26.32 in rewards.
