The Bottom Line	The affordable eMachines M5310 offers fast 54g wireless and a wide-screen display, making it a good budget system for the home.	The M6811 is a decent desktop-replacement laptop, but there are better systems for the money.	This stylish desktop replacement is a serious choice for the budget conscious only if you can stomach some irksome tech-support policies.	Whether you configure it as a mainstream notebook or a desktop replacement, the Presario 2100 is a good deal for home users.
