The [eMachine] is [quietest] desktop I ever had.

Actually this was an issue I was afraid to mention
about my new eMachine, on how extra quiet is is.

Eventhought I don't load the CPU, the only way I can tell
that its running is to place my ear on the intake vent
and listen very quietly.

Double actually I don't think I have a hard drive :o)
since even when the light blinks to signal disk access,
no noice is made. Maybe they put in a Star Trek model
that was gotten from Area 51 from the future that has
no moving parts :o)

Just like cars, pc's have "ears" and it best not to complain
about the small stuff since they will hear you and show you
what kind of stuff really deserves complaining.

Maybe thats why Susie has so much & many pc problems,
she talks to her pc(s) in a not nice tone, causing the pc
to make extra loud noises so it can stop hearing her complain.

A quite pc means that it also likes the silence.

Update on Circuit City, eMachine and Lexmark rebates: yesterday I got the last two of 4 rebates on the eMachine/printer/monitor system purchased end of April. Total rebates were $350. All in all, the process was satisfactory. It probably helped that I took pains to follow prescribed rebate submission procedure to the letter.
