The eMachines ET1161-03 is a low-maintenance desktop PC for light users with a budget on the brain. The $400 price tag will net you get a dual-core AMD Athlon processor with integrated audio and video, 3GB of RAM, a single 320GB hard drive, and 32-bit Windows Vista Home Premium. Unfortunately, its performance numbers don't match up to other similarly priced systems that actually include higher-grade components. If you're shopping around for a desktop and can only pay $400, check out the Compaq Presario SR5610F. If you can save up, you'll get more mileage handing over an extra $50 to Acer for the Aspire AX3200-U3600A, another low-budget PC that benefits from a triple-core processor, more RAM, and a more robust set of onboard ports.

As reviews go this one is pretty lame.
