Hi,

Does anyone have experience with a PowerSpec, Micro Center's "house brand", 
desktop system? What is your opinion? I am comtemplating the purchase of an 
I5 quad core mid-priced box with 8 GB RAM (which I may upgrade to at least 
16 GB) that seems to have plenty of power and storage for my needs. It uses 
the Windows 7 64 bit Professional OS that is upgradeable if I choose to 
Windows 8.

Also, the computer would come bundled with an antivirus program called eSet 
(I'm pretty sure that's the name.) Does anyone have experience with this 
program and knows whether or not it would be accessible with JAWS? the sales 
rep I spoke with said that Microsoft's Security Essentials/Defender focuses 
more on spam and spyware rather than viruses. Is this correct?

Thanks,
Duane
