    well, I recieved my "new" emachine refurb today in the mail, and I plug it all in, excited and ready to go...and...it won't turn on.

    I call tech support, they say they'll send me a box and I can send it in to get fixed. This isn't off to a very good start. :(

    yay! I was hoping they had some sweet customer service. A guy brought the box to my house today, packed it up, and said I should have it back around Monday or Tuesday. ;D

    I've had a refurb for a few months now and I nothing wrong with it at all, even plays hl2 and doom 3 nicely.

    There are very few problems that can't be solved with explosives.
