eMachines T5234 Desktop PC Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this budget PC(the T5234) to replace my aging Gateway with AGP graphics. Other than the 3rd party software stuff on the disk I didn't want, this PC does all I want. I changed the memory to 2GB to give Vista Home Premium more to work with and put in an add-on nVidia graphics card as I do 3D modelling. If you don't game much and just do basic computer tasks the onboard nVidia 6150 is fine. I priced a similar Dell budget PC but it only had Vista Home Basic, which I wouldn't bother with. I didn't give it five stars as the PC doesn't have built-in Firewire, something you'll have get a low cost add-on card for to do get moview from a DV camcorder.

eMachines T5082 - Desktop PC Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Searched hard and could not find a better deal for the money.All other manufacturers wantd 2x as much for the same capabilities.eMachines is a winner in my book.
File transfer was a snap using the Easy Transfet feature in Vista.Still getting used to the changes form Xp, but so far it seems like a great operating system in a fantastic bit of hardware.Yes,it has all the "Trial" versions that are being "given" with computers now, but transfering other software from the old computer was a snap.If your old computer died, it is easy to remove the hard drive from the old one and install it as a second hard drive in this computer.
Cons - only 4 USB (2.0) Ports in back and two on front, could have used more.
When teamed up with a 19" wide screen monitor (from another manufacturer) - it was still less than anyone else could offer, by a bunch.
