I have an eMachine 3265 from Best Buy that I needed in a crunch and it has been awesome so far. I run it 24/7 without even a glitch so far. I have been very impressed. I don't know how the celeron is because I have the Athlon 3200. I read in reviews that they had got their crap together and turned everything around to make better computers.

It turns out that the $200 eMachines sale after MIR at Best Buy is true. Any one willing to brave the madness of the crowd can buy it between the hours of 6AM till noon. While your there they are sell Symantec’s NSW2005/NPF2005/NAS2005 bundle, after MIR, FREE!
