Asus V5-571P-6672. Updated To Windows 10 & Benchmarked. This was Asus first touch screen Win8 PC
0I'm pretty sure that this was the first touch screen Windows 8 that Asus released. I bought it on release date of Windows 8. I was the only person who had mentioned or asked anything about Windows 8 at all. I wanted to get a system and understand it because I was going to be showing other people how to use it. Little did I know the chaos and BS I was getting myself into.
Windows 8 was so. bad. I have no idea what Microsoft was thinking. I still to this day have problems understanding the original 8.0. 8.0 has already been abandoned by Microsoft. The OS was so horrible that during an emergency I needed to take only one computer. and I chose a much inferior unit to this system.
This laptop served me well early on and is still useful. But I just don't quite need it right now. Anyways, lets start the show!
