Have any of the people you deal with called in about this?Yes, that's what sparked this topic. =P I had to tell her I couldn't help her with this PC. It's custom UI that I've never seen before, and she was entirely unable to describe anything on the screen. Blind leading the blind.

My dad wanted to get a computer and teach him how to use one. I told him if he were to get a computer he would get scammed easily. The last thing I need is my dad getting scammed/phished out his bank password.

I've done a little digging and found out some info about this. This PC is from a company called Telikin, which offers an 18-inch variant of the exact same PC for $899, and a laptop with improved specs for the same price. The more I learn about this, the more confusing it gets.

The idea of a simplified computer for older family members I get, but over a grand for this is a major ripoff, especially since 5 years later they are still selling the exact thing. --- Claiming to be part of a master race makes you an idiot, nothing else.

Yikes, yeah that's a total scam for that price.
A 1 TB hard drive does nothing to help a senior use the computer. We use Flash Drives because they are faster and more reliable. ..and that's a blatant lie. There's no reason why a senior should be limited to 32GB and flash drives are not faster or more reliable than a cheap SSD. You can get a 240gb one for about 30$, plenty of room for OS and then some.
