Reviews of the eMachines M6000 series

CNET Review
The Good: Low price; big, bright screen; 802.11g wireless; DVD+/-RW drive.
The Bad: Comparatively short battery life; large and heavy; toll-based tech support only during limited hours.
The Bottom Line: This stylish desktop replacement is a serious choice for the budget conscious only if you can stomach some irksome tech-support policies.
