You better be computer savvy if you buy this machine. The drivers are not up to date so you might as well go the emachine support site and download them BEFORE you even try to boot it up. I can guarantee many of these have been returned to the store they were bought from because alot of people thought they were just crappy laptops. Well..they arent..but in order to get the wireless and lan working good..youll have to get the latest drivers. Mine just wouldnt connect...but after all the latest drivers were loaded..it worked like a charm. If your looking for something that will connect to your wireless or lan right out of the box..forget it. These are actually very good running laptops once the drivers are loaded. The lack of a hard drive light irks me a bit..(especially when downloading windows updates)..but it works great and I love mine now. This machine is actually made by Acer...a very good company. I just wished they updated the drivers before they shipped them. I bought mine at the price of a cheap netbook..so I wont complain. Ive also pumped it up with 8gb of ddr3 sodimm..(its actually cheap)..and it screams really good now. Ive seen it on sale in the 270 to 320 range..so look around before you buy. Overall..id rate it much higher if werent for the driver issues. But if your savvy with loading drivers..then this little baby is a "sleeper bargain" when its on sale.

I was looking for a "cheap" laptop to play with Windows 8 Developers' Preview. I was an IT professional so I have had many computers, desktops and laptops in the past. Currently I have an old Compaq laptop hooked up to my HDTV and my most recent laptop an eMachine E525 as my work horse. When I saw this eMachine on sale, I just had to get it.

So far I am pleased with the spec.s and performance. The machine is well built and looks very good compared to other low priced laptops in the price range. Today is the second day of playing with it so I will add more in future, Good Lord Willing. So far I have following observations:

1. First, eMachines may not be as well known as other brands, they are good machines.

2. An aweful lot of people who are not computer savvy, blame their PCs for mistakes they make. One must set all OS settings correctly for a macine to perform at peak. Many simply do not know how to tweak Windows settings or their PC's settings.

3.After the first full charge of the battery, I have been on battery for about 3.5 hours and I still have 40% battery power left!!!

4. The HD was 320 GB instead of 250 GB as per spec.s. This does happen at times with PCs, when a manufacturer will upgrade an item when they are short on the specified items.

5. Based on the history of my "work horse" eMachine Laptop which is abour 20 months old and has been in use 8-12 hours a day on average for that period with flawless performance, I expect this baby to do just as well.

Well like I said, I shall share more when I install Windows 8 on it and play some more.

Best Deals for EMachines Eme443-Bz602 AMD C-50 1GHz Notebook Computer

I'm an IT tech guy, and when one of my customers' old laptops went kaput, I recommended this eMachines eME443-BZ602 since I have an eMachines laptop which is about a year old and I love it. It's the cheapest laptop you can find with the most value packed into it. I really don't know how they do it and still make any money, but I'm not complaining.

The client had me set up the laptop for him, install Office 2007 and an internet security suite. I did all this, including printer install and Win7 updates, in about two hours. It performs wonderfully for the price, which I can't emphasize enough. The battery was full right out of the box and all drivers were installed. No recovery media came with it because you create it in Win7... something which I feel ought to be strongly encouraged from Microsoft. I will continue to recommend eMachines as a perfect budget-friendly laptop for users who don't need excessive power. As most people only need a computer for internet, e-mail, and productivity, this full laptop computer competes with netbook-class devices.

During setup, I was blown away at how many games this thing came with (it came with Pac-Man!). Not a lot of bloatware either.

My only negative feeling is the fact that I won't be seeing this client for a long time at least not for this computer because my eMachine has been 100% reliable for 15 months and counting.
