My (cheap) husband bought me this emachine to keep me away from his computer. When this stupid thing revs up, we can hardly hear our tv in the other room. I can not hear audio on the computer when it revs, even with the volume maxed. I took the stupid thing back to Best Buy where a kid listened to it and said it wasn't loud to him (he could tell in that place with all the background noise?).

I sent it to the repair center for emachines, I think somewhere in CO, and it was returned repaired. HA! It sounds like a jet engine and it's as slow as Christmas. It does, however, the task for which it was purchased. It keeps me off my husband's computer, but not off his back!! Never, Never, Never recommend this stupd thing to anybody.

They give you advice that isn't always in your best interest. When I asked for help about system recovery they recommended I purchase 2 per minute consultation time to sort out problems with THEIR product. They also suggested I purchase a set of recovery disks. I later found out through my own research that I don't need recovery disks and that it would have taken them 1 minute to point me in the right direction. Why would I need a 30 minute block of time for 60 when they could have easily answered my question. I find their reply somewhat dishonest and misleading. That is not a good business model for happy customers. I will spread the news.

could have resulted in 25 to 60 of expense for me and zero expense for them. (cause they still spend the time to reply with their attempt to purchase product support)
