i got a 199 emachine 2 years ago and had both the motherboard and powersupply die this summer. cost about $140 to repair. wish it would have happened this month, i would just buy the new one, or at least have paid best buy the 39 for the warrenty, since they can't order emachine boards they would have give me $450 credit towards a new one.
2 years ago they also preinstalled a lot of the machines with norton and it was an extra $50, if you didn't want it you had to wait until later in the afternoon to pick up your computer. I felt that was pure bait and switch and told them so.
