The Pros:Cool design overall that makes a real impression. Comes with an interesting range of creative software to play with. Color representation is accurate enough for graphic artists.

The Magix Music Maker 14 allows users to easily create songs by selecting the preloaded sound elements and dragging them to the workplace. This is a smart feature to have included since the target market is a younger demographic. The Corel programs are also a great addition; Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo X2, Corel Painter Sketch Pad and Corel VideoStudio X2 are all nifty software for artists. The Artist Edition also uses AMD processors with up to 500GB to store all the photos and videos the artist produces. HP MediaSmart software, included, makes it faster and easier to handle multimedia. Customers, however, are encouraged to uninstall the extra, unnecessary HP programs for a faster bootup.
