A: Hello and thank you for asking.

A: Hi Patricia, thanks for reaching out about HP 17.3” HD+ Touchscreen Laptop Intel N200 Pentium 4GB RAM 128GB UFS Storage. The HP 17.3” HD+ Touchscreen Laptop with Intel N200, 4GB RAM, and 128GB UFS Storage could be adequate for basic homeschooling needs, but it has some limitations to consider. Overall Recommendation: For basic homeschooling needs involving: Online learning platforms (e.g., Khan Academy, virtual classrooms) Web Browse and research Word processing, spreadsheets, presentations (Microsoft 365, Google Docs) Email Light educational games This HP laptop will likely be sufficient and a good value, especially given the large touchscreen. However, if your homeschooling program involves: Heavy multitasking with many demanding applications open Video editing or creating multimedia projects Graphic design or CAD software High-end educational simulations or games Then you might find the 4GB RAM to be a significant limitation, and you'd be better off with a laptop that has at least 8GB of RAM and potentially more storage. Before buying, consider what specific software and online activities your homeschooling program will require. If it aligns with the "basic needs" list, this laptop is a viable and budget-friendly option.

A: Hello Mike, thanks for your question! You don't need an external mouse to go with this HP 17.3" HD+ Laptop (model 17-cn3002tg), but if you want to use an external mouse instead of the built-in trackpad, you'll need to purchase it separately.

A: Thank you for the question. You'll want more RAM and storage for editing. A laptop with an Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 processor is typically the minimum for photo and video editing. And depending on the editing program you're using, you may need to have a discrete graphics card. Check the system requirements for editing software you're going to use to verify what's needed.
