Very good product and value

MS Office 365 for one computer plus one device for one year is a good value. I paid $69 for one year that gives you all updates automatically plus 20 GB of OneDrive storage for a year. Having the full Office Suite and 20 GB of OneDrive storage for $69 is a great value to me. I'm using OneDrive between my desktop Windows 8 computer, my Asus T100 "tablet" and my WP8 Nokia Lumia 920 phone. The phone, of course, has MS Office on it to begin with (phone version) so I put Office on my desktop and T100 tablet. It all works great, and I feel I'm getting my $69 worth for a year. Of course you can go $99 for the same thing each year only for up to 5 devices.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought the USB 3 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter to have in case I needed a hard internet connection...Wi-Fi is not always available. It's compact so taking it with you is simple and requires no space that you would notice. I've used it once and it worked very well. I keep it in my travel case for my Asus T100.

You can't find a more useful device for the money

I have the 64 GB T100 and it is so useful for personal, business or student use. It's very portable and having the option of using it just as a tablet or connecting it to the "dock" so that it acts just like a laptop is great. It handles regular office chores with aplomb as well as reading, video viewing etc. In terms of normal use I've not had it bog down or "misfire" in any way. I've heard of guys running VM's on it and doing other pretty intensive stuff. I can't verify that sort of use, but the way mine runs I'd be inclined to believe it. If you want a relatively inexpensive device that can handle anything the majority of people would use it for, the T100 is definitely worth looking at!
My Best Buy number: 2679381671

What's great about it: FAST processor, USB 3, very portable, full Windows 8.1, great battery life!
What's not so great: Sound is OK but I would like more volume available. An LTE option would be nice.

Enjoy totally immersive gameplay with this bold and powerful HP Pavilion gaming desktop. Lag is nonexistent thanks to AMD Radeon RX 580 graphics, while high-speed performance is provided by an AMD Ryzen processor and 8GB of DDR4 RAM. Interior expansion slots allow for upgrades that ensure your HP Pavilion gaming desktop remains up to date.
 

Does this include a keyboard and mouse? Does it contain the cords to connect to a monitor?

It comes with a corded optical mouse and keyboard but no other cables that I recall.

Best Buy specifications say the RAM can be upgraded to 32GB, but the Motherboard has 2 slots that only support up to 8GB each for only 16GB. Which is correct?

My understanding is that it will actually support 16GB in each slot. I've not tried it as yet, but I've looked into it and may do so in the future. If you'll notice, the specs claim there are no integrated graphics also, but integrated graphics is there nonetheless.

It looks like this computer has an integrated graphics card built into the processor in addition to the discreet graphics card. Does the computer utilize both graphics cards? Or is the integrated card never used?

It has both the RX 580 and the RX Vega 11 integrated graphics. It uses the RX 580, unless you indicate otherwise in the Radeon settings. Also, should the RX 580 die, it will use the RX Vega 11 until you would choose to replace the graphics card.

The HP support site says 690-0024 has 4 memory slots : https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c06124756 " Dual channel (2 DIMMs per channel) memory architecture Four DDR4 UDIMM (288-pin) sockets " Why bestbuy specs says 2 memory slots?

Good question, but unfortunately most spec sheets I see on any device seem to always include incorrect information. I know for a fact that this device has two slots (saw them both with my own eyes) for a total of 32GB max

Will this make hot chocolate as well ??

Sure - there are K-Cups available for various brands of hot chocolate, tea etc. In that way, the K-Cafe is like any other Keurig I'm familiar with - if it's in the right size pod, the K-Cafe will handle it. I'm not one for hot chocolate mix using water, but that's just me.

I've used refillable pods with mine. The ones I have were picked up at Walmart for standard size K-Cups.

I like to make chai and usually use powdered mix. When I worked as a barista we would stir the chai mix in the pitcher as we were steaming/foaming the milk. Can I put the chai mix into this steamer/foamer?

Yes, it's a stainless-steel cup with the frother gizmo in the bottom. You can use milk, cream or other things to mix in the milk. You can heat what's in the cup or leave the heat off so it stays cold, but there's no steaming available with the K-Cafe

There are no filters, just like the other Keurigs you might have used.
