Best Buy Black Friday: eMachines Celeron 2.66 w monitor-$200 - Club CDFreaks

Gategem · 24-11-2004

There is a rumor on the internet that Best Buy is selling a eMachines Celeron 2.66, 17" CRT, 512MB, 80GB, DVD/Cd-RW Combo (T2893/17F3) $599.98 - $350 bundle MIR - $50 Monitor MIR = $199.98 on Black Friday. I have not been able to substantiate it. Has anyone heard of this? I know it is a eMachine but at that price who can resist.

I have an eMachine 3265 from Best Buy that I needed in a crunch and it has been awesome so far. I run it 24/7 without even a glitch so far. I have been very impressed. I don't know how the celeron is because I have the Athlon 3200. I read in reviews that they had got their crap together and turned everything around to make better computers.

Yo-

If I recall correctly - eMachines was bought by HP some time back-

Could explain the turnaround 'eh-

No, eMachine was acquired by Gateway.

You may already be aware of this but there is a forum dedicated to eMachines that is probably the best support you can get for a eMachine:

It turns out that the $200 eMachines sale after MIR at Best Buy is true. Any one willing to brave the madness of the crowd can buy it between the hours of 6AM till noon. While your there they are sell Symantec’s NSW2005/NPF2005/NAS2005 bundle, after MIR, FREE!
