    Advantages Advantages It was cheap

    Disadvantages Disadvantages It feels cheap

    As the title of my opinion suggests, this computer package is really, really cheap. Not just in terms of how much my hard earned cash I had to part with to buy it, but in general build quality and specification. Some years ago, when even my old 133Mhz computer was the best thing ever I got into a bit of trouble, lets just say I upset the wife by talking to too many strange women on the internet.

    Advantages Advantages very low cost, good speed

    Disadvantages Disadvantages terrible tech support, difficluties getting hardware configured.

    I recenty assisted a friend (or tried to, anyways) set up a whole bunch of e-machines for his accounting office... It was an unmitigated disaster and nightmare. I expected to be 3 or 4 hours, but do to incompatibilities witht eh customer's existing network, the CRAPPY network card they sold him, and the impossible tech-support, I ended up being there for over 8 hours. Let's start with the BIOS which we COULD NOT turn the PNP options off, so windows 98 just WOULD NOT configure properly. Then, of course, there were the manuals for the network cards (which were for a different manufacturor. Then ... more
