Sent my dear husband out to buy our new computer(he who works in the telecommunications field!) and he brings home an eMachine...what!?!
So, after ranting and raving about that I let him set it up. And to my great surprise, it is working fine. I use it for household things and my email...never a problem. My kids use it for their games and some homework. Nope, no problem there either. We did buy some extra memory because of the large number of games we downloaded, but that should not matter. So now I would rate it a thumbs up.
The bad things(there always are those right?)...the plastic button to start up the hard drive broke off and now you have to push the little piece underneath. Then the whole plastic covering on the front of the hard drive broke off. Both pieces that broke off, can not be repaired with the original pieces and we would have to get replacements for them. Since our hard drive can not be seen to the casual observer, we are just letting it go.
Now that I have had the computer for a bit, I really don't care if it is namebrand or what. It does the job fine and that is what counts most!
