Reviews of the eMachines T3646
-
CNET Review
The Good: Faster performance than more expensive budget systems.
The Bad: No media card reader; significantly better systems available for only $100 more.
The Bottom Line: eMachines T3646 is one of the cheapest desktops available, and unfortunately it shows. It offers some compelling performance, but basic capability is more important in budget systems, and we found this system came up short compared with others in its price range.
