I hate to sound nieve but just purchased for my son’s birthday and think I have made a big mistake. Nothing in the Product Details states you have to have a monitor or tv. I thought it was all you need. Am I missing something. Another thing is there are no detailed instructions.

Item was to be shipped with no shipping charges as ad indicated. However after purchase of item I was raped for shipping and handling charges. Computer works very well but Amazon is criminal. Numerous attempts to resolve this situation have gone ignored. Buy Pc’s from Newegg NOT Amazon.

I got this computer the end of november and the hard drive crashed 2 days later. Can’t find a number or address to get an rma so what now? Gee Amazon, how does one return a faulty item from you or get it fixed? No Phone # No Address No nothing. Glad I got a 1 year warranty, it may take most of it to find where to send it.

Purchased this for my husband for Christmas so he would leave my computer alone. If you don’t mind getting technical help from someone whose first language is not English, then this is for you. I called for tech help, couldn’t understand him and could barely hear him for all the noise in the background, when he got rude I hung up. The computer is very lightweight as are the mouse and keyboard, they are all three very compact. Perfect for a child or to take or keep in ones RV. It is not a heavyduty use computer that is for sure. I bought my granddaughter one of the laptops and she loves it. I have purchased Emachines in the past and was very well pleased with them. So far this particular computer is still on my wait and see list, and falling rapidly to the bottom.

I got this to stream and play my HD content for a HTPC. As other users have said, this can play up to 1080p when tweaked just right and using the right software (i.e. 2GB RAM, Windows 7, most recent drivers, etc.)
HOWEVER: It will NOT play protected HD content from iTunes. This is the reason I am not keeping this device. It can stream HD and play wmv HD content beautifully, but if you are planning to rent and buy HD movies from iTunes, you will be sorely disappointed. Most video players like VLC and WMP utilize your GPU to handle the HD. iTunes does not – it relies on your CPU. And with this being an Atom processor, you will have issues with HD. Another factor that I found out makes rented or purchased HD movies from iTunes unwatchable is the DRM. This does something to the processing of the video that makes it extremely difficult to render and unwatchable.
This also means that most likely every other commenter who says this is the *perfect* machine for your HTPC are probably all downloading movies illegally. So if your conscience is ok with breaking the law and stealing movies – this will be just fine. If you’re smarter than that, then look for something more powerful and go the legal route.
Since we use iTunes to legally purchase and rent movies, we ended up going with the Apple TV. It works flawlessly with iTunes content and has many other perks over a full fledged computer.
