This is a good computer. Programs-Applications work well. However, it does not have a digitizer pen option like the Microsoft Surface. In addition, the battery life is mediocre. With a solid state drive, I expected battery life to be about 7 to 8 hours. So far, the battery life is about 4 to 5 hours. The native resolution is a problem. It is too high to run Microsoft Word and Word Perfect. It was also too high to run Logmein Pro. I had to reduce the resolution from by 50%, i.e., 3200 x 1800 to 1600 x 900. This fix is not self evident. The wireless connection is not great. I cannot connect to my Apple iPhone hot spot. The computer consistently fails to see it. I confirmed that this is not an Apple iPhone problem. On the positive side, the face recognition software works well and the computer takes about 15 seconds to boot up. Much faster than a standard SATA disc drive.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I'm 64 and never owned a laptop. Can I get new one ready to use?

I browse the internet, use AOL email, download and send pictures, use for information, want to hook up a printer/fax/xerox/scanner to it, need spyware and protection, download PDF documents, do NOT play games, save stuff I get off sites, do not watch TV, need wireless, can fix itself if I mess up, does not have to be super fast.
Would this be good laptop for me? Can someone put in all the stuff I said I needed before sending it to me so it's ready to use? Does it cost extra?
This is more laptop than you need. You are better off purchasing a chromebook for about $200.
