Great to see the ol’ girl restored and back to life! Definitely one of if not the very first model they sold, so it deserves the attention. Nice to see it runs Pod without much issue, too!
It is in fact their first e-tower model along with the E-tower 300 at the end of 98. I remember seeing these as a teen...I was shopping for a computer and my parents saw this and wanted to get it but thank gud I knew about agp was back then and hounded them not to get it...We ended up picking up a Ibm Aptiva 540..Still have it too with my original V3 3000 I upgraded to 8 months later 🤗
My first computer was a eMachines 333 bought in 98 for college. Had a 250mhz cyrix CPU, 32mb RAM and 2gb HDD with WIN98. Eventually upgraded it to a AMD K6 500mhz CPU and 256 mb RAM and a 20gb HDD. It actually ran well with those specs. I gave it to a friend for his kid in the early 2000s after I built a new system. It was still running like a champ then.😊
It is the very first eMachines PC model available for sale. I have a eMachines 300K. Mine was a eMachines etower 300K model with a AMD K6-2 processor at 300 Mhz that I purchased at a Future Shop store with my parents. I had to do several upgrades for it to be decent at PC Gaming
One of my first computers was an enachine very similar to this. It had almost the same specs except mine was a 300 MHz processor. Over the years in service I upgraded the RAM and HD, and had to replace the 56K modem and power supply.
Dude, I have that joystick in my storage compartment downstairs with my other PC. heh I had a machine in the same class, RDRAM + P4 + ATI card there back in the early 2000s. Nice!
I'm surprised this eMachines computer seems to be working fine. They were notorious for being lower end computers. Hopefully, this wouldn't be like what happened with your eMachine back in the day. I'm luckily enough to never own one when they were new.
Back in the early 1990s I bought a 486 DLC with a Cyrix CPU. Ran fine with DOS and Win 3.1 but a real dog with Win 95. Something to do with Win 95 being a 32bit OS i suspect.
my 1997 pc has intel mxx 225 mhz /64 mt ram and 4.3 HD. socet 7 can used AMD cpu to if has bios updates for it. best case get may bee Amd K6-2 450/500 mhz depents is chips set.

Excellent score 😀 Miss eMachines, good memories with them 😉

Every LGR computer HAS to run Duke Nukem!!!
Wow! That 4K looks good!
Do you still have the eTower 466id?
Nice video. Have to admit, every time I saw one on store shelves, I said "Eeeeeee....."! :D

My late uncle's fiance had one of these, except it had an NVidia Vanta with 8MB of memory. I think it was either a Celeron or a Pentium.
Anyone else miss read the title as etower 286?
My aunt had an eMachine similar to this one. Same tower case, can’t remember what model number it was.
id give it a trayless optical drive and a 12gb 5.25 hdd for storage
Always liked the Mac rip off one they got sued over. Bad court decision!
eOne 🤓

eMachines were famous with the sticker "never obsolete"
sounds like cpu fan
