Just saw this on another site as well. Curious if this is "nforce" or "nforce2"?

How are emachines rating nowadays? I remember them being low-cost for a reason for quite some time. Since I'm simply "upgrading" a PC for about this same cost, it would be very interesting to get a bunch of extra parts to sell off out of it.

From what I hear, emachine has improved quite a bit from the early days. I remember those early emachines had loads of problems........

Out of stock at all the stores in SE Wisconsin and on the website...

I'd consider emachines hardware as similar quality to Dell hardware. Their service is likely not as good, price is a bit better. As long as you can do your own trouble-shooting, I'd say emachines is better than Dell.

Just my $0.02

nforce1 or nforce2? anyone?

 

[yougotdeals]

I tired looking to see if it was nforce1 or 2, but this model isn't listed on emachine's website.

Emachine's are alright, but I hate their monitors. =(

The rebates require and additional purchase of a scanner or printer.

Any idea how this affects getting the rebate?

There is a lexmark printer you can stack this deal with. $50 MIR on the printer makes the whole deal $419.99 AR. You could also buy any scanner instead. They've got a cheapo canon for $44.99
