[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 908585, member: 56379"] Don't get me wrong...I'm not disagreeing because I really don't know for sure. But don't you think that since eMac's were meant for the education market that they would actually be built "better" considering the rough handling & long hours of use they would see day after day after day? 5-6 years in the education environment might be equal to 15-20 years or more of average use by an individual home user. But regardless...any 2nd hand eMac could have some serious usage hours on it if it did come from the education environment...so this should be taken into consideration when purchasing. And as with any used computer...it's really hard to know how much use a computer has had. Just food for thought, - Nick [/QUOTE]
