eMachines E525

eMachines

I can remember these machines being sold in Asda back in the day, and they were considered to be low spec when brand new

eMachines eMachines

At least you can get access to the RAM and hard disc without taking apart the machine, unlike some Acer's I have

eMachines

The model label for your amusement

eMachines

Removing the battery

eMachines

On the left is the power, Ethernet, VGA, two USB2 ports, and the mic and headphone sockets

eMachines

On the right is the DVD/CD writer and the Kensington lock

eMachines eMachines

The keyboard and touch-pad. Urgh, an Intel Celeron and Windows Vista!

eMachines

It's so low-spec it doesn't have a camera above the screen

eMachines

It didn't come with a PSU, but the PSU from my Acer ES1-512 works, but on switching it on it doesn't boot into Vista, it hangs with a blank screen, so into startup repair we go

eMachines

After what seemed like twenty-seven hours, but was more like 45 minutes, it boots into the glorious Vista that is Windows

eMachines

Even my phone camera hates WIndows Vista, but I can tell you it's got an Intel Celeron running at 2.2GHz with 3GB of RAM, so again, Xubuntu it is
