eMachines eME527 2537 15 6 Inch Laptop Black
I received my laptop yesterday and I have already put it to the test. I'm a computer consultant and needed a second laptop to juggle multiple VPN connections. It has performed very well so far.
I did not realize when I was purchasing that this was a 64-bit system. It works for me and my peripherals, but if you have older equipment be advised because not all older equipment has drivers for it.
Pros: Pretty snappy for only a Celeron and 2 GB of RAM, keyboard has a 10-key on it, which I can turn off with Num Lock for other keyboard functions, bright clear LCD with decent resolution (for the price), supports wireless N (which I hope to upgrade to soon), DVD burner, 3-4 hour battery life
Cons: Single speaker is VERY poor, vertical scroll on the touchpad doesn't respond quickly, lid doesn't clasp shut
Overall, I am THRILLED with the value I have received for this laptop. If I had paid regular price I would give it 4 stars, but at $279 I believe I received way more than I would expect in a 15.4" laptop.
i want to use a webcam and buy a laptop.
BalasHapus...is it unrealistic to hope for one around $200?
BalasHapusHi, i have brought an eMachines e640 laptop for my mum for xmas but all over the internet i've seen nothing but bad things about it. I cant take it back to the shop because it doesnt have a warrenty , so i just need to know if it is a good or bad laptop because i dont want to give my mum a laptop which isnt very good. Thanks. :)
