Good God, man! An expert electronic tech that admits he has an
eMachine w/XP home...WTF!

* *I have over 100 computers at home. *I refurbish them and give them
away for free. *I used one eMachines Windows ME computer for ten years,
and the original install of ME is still in use in another, later model?
I needed ME to use an older flat bed scanner so I stuck the drive into a
T1220 that was shipped with XP..

* *You do know that a lot of HP computers used the same motherboard,
power supply and drives as eMachines that sold for half the price?


eMachines that we evaluated could not withstand shock and vibration,
so maybe their chief weaknesses were mechanical.
