w/ e machines youd have to do a lot of upgrades to get into some good gaming.

i suggest hitting up stores like Dell and Gateway....on SOME occasions they give you a lot for your money so you dont have to upgrade at all....

a e machine sucks ass. my neighbor bought one and didn't even have the Internet and the damn thing had pop ups built in to it. you can not upgrade them. they come with every thing built in. good luck trying to put a agp card in it because they don't have a agp slot.

Its not cheaply made, just made with cheap (not neccesarily bad), componenets, and arent designed for upward mobility.

Besides You cna do better just building it yourself.
