No to a Mac
A. They already had a nice newer PC.
B. They don't want one
C. I can buy about 5 emachines for the price of an iMac plus in two years they don't give a crap about tossing it and buying them a nice laptop or something.
Ubuntu
A. While yes it would have been more secure how many 14 and under kids do you know with 1337 skillz.
B. They would have been calling me more on how too use it.

Emachines are good value, my gf has a P4 one from years ago, you turn it on, it whines and creaks, heats to 100C then back down to 50, lets off some steam then loads Windows 7 RC fine. I took about 2 litres of dust out of it last time i gave it a service...]]>May 20th 2009 11:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/May 20th 2009 10:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/May 20th 2009 10:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/

"and while the power ain't anything to write home about, it should handle Word processing and the occasional YouTube video fine."

Actually a 1.6GHz AMD Athlon 2650e can handle just about anything from video to photoshop, unlike an Atom, Not a speed demon but very few things will kill it outright.]]>May 20th 2009 10:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/May 20th 2009 12:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/ Atom]]>May 20th 2009 6:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/May 20th 2009 10:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/
About half to three quarters of our users just use web applications, so the smaller the better. To the disappointment of PC makers, I think nettops will probably work just as well.

The size the eMachines uses is appealing if we want to hold on to them long enough to need to do out of warranty repairs/upgraes, where the nettops will be more/less disposable.]]>May 20th 2009 12:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/May 24th 2009 12:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/May 20th 2009 10:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/I see them once in a while, customers houses, at the office; good to see they are still around and growing.]]>May 20th 2009 10:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/May 21st 2009 11:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/my $300 emachine has been the center of my music recording studio since 1998
i copped the $300 stock tower at bestbuy [2 of them]
added my own RAM, 2 dvd burners, sound card w/ MIDI, wireless mouse & keyboard

it's good for what it does.
recording multi track mixes & editing audio.

it's a little slow compared to my newer PCs & Macs, but it's a workhorse that's still going strong.

i going to retire it soon, maybe for the new model, or maybe another shuttle.
i'll just re purpose it as a .mp3 server or something.]]>May 20th 2009 10:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/20/emachines-delivers-el1300-line-of-small-form-factor-pcs/
