Gateway Completes eMachines Acquisition
ryanjensen writes "Gateway just completed its $289.5 million deal to acquire Irvine, CA-based eMachines Thursday according to News.com. From the article: 'Many analysts believe that Gateway ultimately will abandon some or all of its namesake stores in favor of selling products at third-party retailers. However, they expect the company to continue selling Gateway-brand products, including PCs and consumer electronics, directly to its customers.'"
Ruin eMachines ?????
How do you ruin complete utter crap? I've been stuck with trying to use / repair a few eMachines in my career... I honestly cannot think of a worse piece of junk. Every single design decision between cheap and useable went to cheap.
They aren't the right shape for wheel chocks, nor heavy enough for boat anchors, and they certainly aren't anything like computers!
I never had a very high opinion of Gateway (too much "we'll sell you anything, but use whatever componants we can get cheap this week to build it."), but this really sinks them.
And being superior AMERICANS we are not out to exterminate 'em all ....somebody needs to drink Coca Cola and watch our fine action movies.
We intend to kill only the BAD GUYS....murderous Wahabbi Sunni Scum Pig Fucker 'Slammis.
Of course vanquishing the Evil Sunni Scum is contingent on PRESIDENT BUSH remaining in office.
Thankfully that is almost certain,however if John F Kerry is elected look for US to surrender under the guise of " amulti-lateralist approach" and our bitches will be forced to wear Burkhas to show "cultural sensitivity".
Just yesterday a prominent Democrat Spokeswoman was arrested for spying for the TERRORIST SCUM so watch out for this traitorous political party allied with the Sunni Scum.
