Wal-Mart's "Green" $199 PC Gets De-Shelved

Who Cares.

who cares china mart

The Linux OS is actually superior to MicroSoft, and offers much greater protection from hacking.

Who cares??? how about a former teacher of a school where 85% of the parents would not be able to afford a computer otherwise. Do you know how hard it is for kids to function today without one. Hmm feed and shelter my family or give my family a fighting chance to compete with the rest of the world. Open your eyes!

They might as well do away with the eMachine as well unless eMachine would like to install a descent Power Supplye and Chip Board! Duuuhhhh!For Real!

Hate to break the nezs but I purchased an emachine 3 years ago and havent had a bit of trouble with it..
Cant say the same bout the $700.00 and
$600.00 "BRAND NAME" puters

soooo, what's the big deal? can't you buy microsoft windows and install it yourself? the windows system can't cost all that much. i think this is a deal of a lifetime for people that need a computer for their kid's schooling and beggar's, so to speak, can't be choosers. but then, i think back to when i went to school and my computer was in my skull, it's called a brain. i managed to get a's and be on the highest grade's list all the time. also did all my math, algebra, etc. with my brain computer and got straight a's in that too. what's this great need for computers for kid's in school nowadays anyway? had a young lady in her late 20's here two weeks ago that was trying to figure out what 18 days at $1.15 was. she said she had a calculator in her cellphone. she didn't know how to use the calculator and then tried to do it by hand using her faulty brain computer. her answer was four dollars and some odd cents off. i had gotten the correct answer in my head before she figured out she didn't know how to use the dang calculator. what is this? simple multiplication!!! moron's are being graduated from highschool. woe are we.

I have an E machine and it has not ben a problem. I love it and it has done everything i wanted it to do. Better then the Dell that only lasted me a year!

I have had Emachines for 6 years with no problems.

computers are lovely tools - but I would rather have people who can read and write the language properly - and too few in this thread seem to be able to do it. Most HS - and many college - graduates seem unable to form a proper sentence.

I bought an emachines computer 2 yrs ago. I have never had any problems with it and its not even a high priced one. I recommend it to all my friends.

I have had an emachines for about 3 years now.I have know problems with it. Better then the vista.

Bill.....it headQUARTERS, NOT headcorders. Educated in America, no doubt.

E-Machines have AMD chips in them which I think protects them better than Intel chips. Since the market is saturated with Intel Pentiums, they are more likely to get hacked into. I heard somewhere that the AMD processor is better for some reason. I also have to say that for some of you that think name brands stink, I have a Sony and it lasts like the Emachine. Some brands don't recover the last known good configuration resulting in bringing it back to the store to be fixed. Sony has that feature in the BIOS. I was able to fix it myself. As far as not caring about the computer mentioned in the article, the teacher is right. A lot of kids come from poor homes and need computers to compete with their peers. The students are now doing research online and emailing their work in.

Doug? What kind of Dell did you have that only lasted you a year??????

ersakm... an ellipses has only THREE periods not FIVE.

This coming from a fairly uneducated American.

Ersakm, this level of arrogance and contempt for Americans could only come from a Brit. I sense a bit a jealousy from your teeny little country. God save the old hag!

big deal u dont want to shop with us at walmart go somewhere else. customers complaining geez! being a walmart associate it gets old! we didnt tel u to purchase it we just sell products ok.enough making us feel bad we only work there ok! blaming us for bad products its not our fault ok call 1800 walmart or walmart.com if u have a problem ok. get a life some of u people!

Hell with wal-Mart, same with Bush. Junk is Junk no matter what the price. They could sell a good computer for the same price and still make money. Good value is no more because people here are stupid enough to keep paying dumbass prices.
