EMachines Mini-e Desktop Computer ER1402-05 ( Space ) Very Best Bang-For-Your-Buck Nettop
Nettops are often considered netbook systems without the screen and keyboard. For the most part, this is true as most nettops still use the same underpowered Intel Atom processor and weak graphics that most netbooks use. The eMachines Mini-e ER1402-05 nettop is different in that it is one of the few nettop systems to run on an AMD processor.
Thankfully, this does not mean an increase in size or design as the diamond-shaped eMachines Mini-e ER1402-05 looks as cool as other designer nettop systems. While it does come with a stand and an LED, it also has an optional bracket that allows you to stick the nettop at the back of your HDTV. The system comes with a wireless mouse and keyboard, both of which are quite comfortable to use for computing purposes. The nettop takes up very little space and will not look out of place in any home.
Unfortunately the eMachines Mini-e ER1402-05 is filled to the brim with bloat-ware or useless software, so you'll need to do just a little unscrambling prior to a system won't stop nagging you about something. Thankfully, that is uncomplicated to do because the AMD Athlon II Neo K125 processor will be as powerful being a dual-core Intel Atom processor. The system is stable due to its 2GB of DDR3 memory even though the 160GB hard disk offers a good amount of space for movies and pictures. The nettop has wireless n/g/b wi-fi and four USB ports but important really special would be the HDMI port and S/PDIF out port as the allow direct connections for your HDTV and HD audio speakers.
Performance for any nettop is a useful one for simple 3D games like Spore as well as Sims while HD video is smooth as much as 720p. The nettop doesn't become too hot even under load as things are made to save power. Coming in at significantly less than other single-core Intel Atom nettops the eMachines Mini-e ER1402-05 creates a wonderful ultra-compact Home Theater Home pc (HTPC) be the best bang-for-the-buck deal you can dream to get for a performance nettop system.
