The LA Times reports that eMachines is introducing "the first laptops from a major PC maker powered by high-capacity 64-bit chips".
"The new laptops from privately held EMachines run on an Athlon 64 processor from Advanced Micro Devices Inc and have a 60-gigabyte hard drive, DVD reader and CD reader/burner, WiFi wireless connectivity and a large, 15.4-inch wide-aspect screen. The M6805 will sell for $1,449 after rebates, and the M6807, which includes a DVD burner, will be $1,549 after rebates."
In the UK, eMachines systems are sold by Dixons, the high-street retailer, and $1,449 is currently about £790. Obviously they'd be a bit more expensive than that if they arrived here.....
