Reviews of the eMachines T5254
-
CNET Review
The Good: Solid desktop computer for less than the competition; power-efficient dual-core CPU.
The Bad: No extra features such as Bluetooth or Wi-Fi (not that we expect them at this price); minor software clutter.
The Bottom Line: The eMachines T5254 costs less than similar systems from Dell and HP, and it outperforms them (in some cases), and uses less power while doing so. You can't configure it before making a purchase, but eMachines has chosen this system's specs wisely, and with a level of environmental consciousness that make it a very enticing deal.
