So, it looks like the emachine people are looking for resellers. Given a number of successful reports concerning using FreeBSD on the emachines, it would be cool is Walnut Creek (or someone else) started shipping $400 machines with FreeBSD + XFree86 installed, as workstations or low-end web servers. Presumably with the add-on option of technical support :-). Or if they were sold as web-farm modules; at $400 for an add-on module adding n-hundred-thousand hits a day capability.
