This machine is impressive. It is very well made - with a very pleasing exterior, and a very clean and well laid out interior. It provides more features at this price point than you can find elsewhere. For example - it gives two USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports, and a USB C port on the front! The engineering is well thought out. For example, the memory is two paired 4GB sticks, to optimize throughput. The machine is snappy and does the jobs it was designed for very well. One thing to take note of is that the machine is not designed for high end gaming, and really can't be upgraded to do so - it has a 180W interior power supply and a proprietary motherboard. But it does all the tasks characteristic of a home pc very well, and somewhat beyond. I am doing photo editing using Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop Elements, and they work very well. I have paired the PC with a 28" Samsung 4K monitor, and the images are stunning. For the price, you won't find a better machine anywhere.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This Celestron C90 MAK 52268 spotting scope features a Maksutov-Cassegrain design with multicoated optics for clear, detailed images. The included nylon backpack guards against dust and scratches while you're on the go.

Bring distant objects into focus with this Alpen Optics Kodiak spotting scope. The waterproof design and a rubber covering offer durability, while the fully multicoated lenses help eliminate diffraction and chromatic aberrations for bright, detailed visuals. This Alpen Optics Kodiak spotting scope comes with a tripod for a stable setup, and the included carry case enhances portability.
Is the carrying case a hard case, a soft case, or a bag? Will it also carry the tripod with the scope?

At the top of the PROSTAFF line, the PROSTAFF P7 binoculars deliver spectacular high-definition views of birds, wildlife, aircraft and more. Nikon’s advanced multilayer coatings increase brightness and clarity, and a wide field of view makes it easier to follow fast-moving subjects. Add high-end features like a locking diopter ring and an oil and water repellent coating for easier cleaning, and you have a lightweight, waterproof binocular to take your viewing to the next level.
Is there a diopter adjustment for one of the eyepieces? If so, what is its range of adjustment?

Does it have extra ssd slot for upgrade?
There is only one ssd slot for storage. To upgrade you have to remove the ssd installed, and put in the new one. You should also look into cloning options and backup options before proceeding with the upgrade.

Are the specs correct when it says 14.5 width, and height is 0.78, but the screen is 15.6" trying to get a bag for my daughter and need to know If it will fit.
The screen is 15.6" on a diagonal. Most bags advertised for
"15.6inch" laptops will fit such laptops. Find one that she
will like.

Can this laptop handle a lightweight photoshop? 16 y/o niece has been enjoying graphics class at school. For her first laptop, would this handle a lightweight photoshop?
I would suggest considering the program Lightroom.
This laptop meets the minimum hardware requirements for this program. This laptop does not meet the minimum hardware requirements for the more demanding program Photoshop. For that you would need a laptop with a Core i5 processor.

Convertible? Can this be used like an ipad also?
This laptop has a touchscreen, but it is not a 2 in 1 machine. So it can not be folded 360 deg to act like a tablet.

Will this be able to handle Lightroom or Photoshop editing???
This laptop meets the minimum hardware requirements to handle the program Lightroom. I am afraid the demands of the program Photoshop will be too much for it. For that you would need a computer with at least a Core i5 processor, and 16GB of RAM.

Can you plug in a mouse
A wired mouse can be plugged into one of the usb ports on this laptop. I would suggest using the usb 2 port, and saving the fast port (Super Speed) for devices that can use the extra speed.
