| rbobaru's Full Review: eMachines T1220 PC Desktop |
It's a Intel Celeron 1.2GHz that comes with 128M of RAM and a 20 Gig Hard Drive. Comes with XP Home.
When you bring it home, the first thing you notice is how slow it is. You double the speed by resetting your windows desktop to 'classic' view, but what's the point of having XP if you can't see and feel it. I went back and purchased then installed an additional 128M of RAM (total 256) for about $50. Now it's much much better. It's been a year now and works good. I'm a software developer and it does the job. It more than paid for itself. Excellent investment!
