    Thin-and-light: The eMachines eMD620-5133 is a thin-and-light laptop, under six pounds and built to travel. This model has premium features including an efficient processor, DVD SuperMulti drive and built-in wifi.

    Powerful processing: The 1.6GHz AMD Athlon 2650e single-core processor provides fast, efficient power. The 64-bit architecture allows you to run all of your 32-bit programs and still be prepared for the latest 64-bit software.

    Features

    This desktop features 2GB of DDR2 system memoryenough to handle everyday computing needs. DDR2 is slightly faster than DDR, the previous standard in system memory.

    AMD employs HyperTransport technology, which works like a fully-integrated frontside bus that increases bandwidth, reduces bottlenecks and enables processors to work more efficiently. The end result is better performance.

    Processors search for the same data over and over. L2 caches keep this data neat, organized, and nearby so it can be retrieved more quickly. This 512KB L2 cache gives the processor a little boost.

    Seems like the system would be slow with vista and that processor speed.
