I agree. Kinda reminds me of a bunch of kids sitting outside in the hot sun all day selling lemonade at a 2 cent loss per cup and then going back to mom and dad for more supplies.

eMachines is a leading vendor of consumer PCs through the retail channel. By using low-cost, outsourced manufacturing to build its PCs, eMachines sells PCs at low (but profitable) price points to drive high unit volumes. The resulting large installed base creates significant high-margin Beyond the Box (BTB) opportunities.

In only five full quarters of operation, eMachines has established a number three position in the U.S. retail consumer market and continues to gain significant shelf space at leading retail chains.

Pitt believes that BTB opportunities are just starting to fall into place. He projects $21.4MM revenue in 2000 and $50MM revenue in 2001 from Internet service offerings, in-box coupons and Hot Keys.

In addition to accelerate growth of its BTB business Pitt says the company plans to extend it product line to include consumer oriented Internet appliances.
