Sounds like a good way to make use of old eMachines, at a large discount too.

Finally, the year of the Linux Desktop! (eMachine edition)

I'm all about upcycling PCs with Linux, but I think selling a PC with 2GB RAM is going to make Linux look bad. It's gonna handle its resources better than windows, but 2GB is just too little for today's standards. It will not run well.

edit:considering this is 10 years old judging by the versions used, back then it would have been okayish, I have a convertible from that time with the same specs but it just can't keep up anymore.
