i've got an emachines (1st brand name computer i've bought in 5 years) and it work ok...the rear usb2 ports don't work for some strange reason...sometimes after a while the music won't play any sounds and i have to reboot (but on the shutdown it makes the windows exit noises)...so far not really impressed but for $450 for an amd 64 3200+ it's not a bad buy and worth the risk
