Should Improve Keyboard and Mouse

The machine is wonderful. It is fast, boots instantly and there is plenty of memory and hard disk space. I use it for engineering work (CAD and structural calculations) and it is replacing a previous two monitor HP rig. I work with two programs simultaneously and the monitor is fantastic at that. My only complaint is the input devices HP includes with it. The mouse is awful for CAD. The no-button design is a nightmare for dragging and dropping with CAD applications. It had to be replaced with a wired HP mouse. The keyboard is nice and small, but after a few weeks it started to repeat keys. I contacted, and spent a considerable time with, HP support on this issue. After the support session it improved; but after several days the key repetitions came back. So I finally replaced the keyboard with a Logitech mechanical keyboard and I am happy with it. So now the machine is a dream! I am an old school computer user and enjoy the tactile feedback of the mechanical keyboard. The fan is certainly a bit noisy; but it only turns on from time to time, so it is not a concern to me. The sound is truly better than other all in ones; but, if like me you take music seriously, get a set of external loudspeakers.
