Two years ago or so I got three eMachines from another list member.  I
was pleasantly surprised to find that two of them were actually very
nice small ATX cases once I removed the power supplie and
motherboard and put my own in.  The only complaint I have about the case
is the emachine logo and the floppy drive, and the floopy drive is only
a complaint because I don't want to bother with one anymore.
