eMachines T5226

The eMachines T5226 is a solid yet inexpensive desktop that runs a dual-core processor and Windows Vista Premium.

Inexpensive. Dual-core processor. Good entry point to Vista Premium. Integrated media card reader. A smidge cheaper than its predecessor.

Weak integrated graphics. Only 60-day Internet security subscription. A bunch of trialware and other semiuseful programs on the hard drive.

Fast, dependable and lots of memory. A very good value. ”

This is our second eMachine and I am very pleased with it's performance. The operating system (Vista Premium) and new MS Office software, which came preinstalled, required a steep learning curve, but that is obviously not a hardware problem and does...
