It’s hard to pass up a capable PC at under $250. The uses are almost endless: a print server, web server or thin client are just a few. Enter the refurbished eMachines T5082 - for just $249.00 USD, this box boasts a P4 3.0 GHz Processor, 512 MB DDR2 RAM (expandable to 2 GB) and a 160GB hard drive. Even at this low price, it comes with a licensed version of Vista Home Basic, a 16x DVDRW Multi-Format dual layer drive and 15-in-1 Digital Media Manager.
Take a look at the eMachines product summary and you’ll see this retails for $399, so it’s a good deal at $150 off. Browsing the web, CNET.com has a few user reviews of 8, 8 and 5 out of 10. Yahoo Tech gives it 4 out of 5 stars, so you know it’s a quality buy as well as a cheap one. An important note: for Windows Vista, 512MB is not much memory at all. I would definitely recommend upgrading for any serious application around your home or office.

Having recently received another bargain offer on an Inspiron laptop that is only fairly decent, I asked myself where the REAL deals are for those in the market for a dependable notebook computer. How about taking a page out of the desktop world and exploring refurb laptops (aka “refurbished”)? These are perfect for consumers who don’t mind a machine that’s a model year back or perhaps have a scratch or dent.
Here are a few quick recommendations:
While you may have to upgrade the memory or put up with a little scuff here and there, these provide significant savings over the same computer bought brand new. Many times, these laptops even come with a full warranty. That’s what refurb is all about - buying the features, not the flash.
