Reviews of the eMachines T3626

CNET Review
The Good: Most fully featured PC for the dollar (counting the rebate); reasonably good-looking desktop; room for internal expansion.
The Bad: Single-core CPU incurs a major performance drop-off compared with dual-core in most modern programs; 160GB hard drive will fill up quickly with digital photos and music.
The Bottom Line: They don't call them budget PCs for nothing. If price is your first concern, the eMachines T3626 seems to offer the best computing deal for the money, but only thanks to its $50 rebate. If you can stand to spend $400 or more, you can get substantially more computer for your dollar.
