The price might attract me on Circuit City for the EMachine but the hard drive and speed aren't overly impressive.  I personally would buy the dual core processor laptop on Best Buy for the RAM alone.  It boasts:
  • 4GB DDR2 DIMM memory
    For multitasking power, expandable to 8GB.
  • Multiformat DVD±RW/CD-RW drive with double-layer support
    Records up to 8.5GB of data or 4 hours of video using compatible DVD+R DL and DVD-R DL media; also supports LightScribe direct-disc labels using compatible LightScribe media.
  • 250GB Serial ATA hard drive (7200 rpm)
    Offers spacious storage and fast read/write times.
