thecow, you were right a while ago when you mentioned a minimum processor speed for WinXP and I disagreed and said my 600 MHz Pentium in my laptop was fast enough. I now have an emachine with a 2.8GHz Celeron and the difference is noticable, especially when opening web pages. I bought this machine hoping it would connect to the web. The old 400 MHz emachine desktop had failed to do so. It turned out the NEW PC would not connect either until I depowered cable modem and router and then powered up modem - waited a few minutes, powered up router - waited until the red self-checking lights went out and then turned on the PC. Now all is OK, I got a new PC under false pretenses and its YOUR fault this time. :) I recommend this emachine bundle... eMachines T2885 Computer, EView 17F3 17-in. CRT Monitor, Lexmark Z705 Printer. Intel Celeron 2.8 GHz CPU. 512 MB DDR RAM, 80 GB Hard Drive, DVD-ROM & CD-RW Drives $470 after rebates till May 1. at Circuit City, Best Buy and Office Depot. salescircular.com Have not tried the printer and speakers yet.
