Supercharge Your eMac
Woe is the lowly and now discontinued (except for Education customers) eMac. Compared to its sleek and sexy brethren, the eMac has always felt to me like the kid picked last for kickball. 
But like Clark Kent turning into Superman, your eMac can be transformed into a pretty powerful beast. Here are instructions on how to overclock that 800Mhz eMac to 1.33Ghz. You can even install a Superdrive, add several extra internal HD's, and hack the firmware to allow for dual monitor support. Be sure to check out the extra links at the bottom of this page for other eMac overclocking instructions.

You might want to get rid of the slash after the html extension. It makes the link no worky. ;)

Though I have never bought one, I have always liked the eMac, probably because I liked the original iMac range.

Long live the eMac. Mine is overclocked to 900mhz from 700. Superdrive is not factory. It's good to see this article on TUAW. Also checkout bigbadmac.net for more emac overclock walkthough
