Yeh not too bad,..but consider this.
The new model is 
1.42GHz G4
512MB DDR333 RAM (1 chip)
160GB Hard Drive
8x SuperDrive
64MB Video Card
Tiger
$1499

So you get all that for $200 extra.
If you were double the RAM on the eMac from 256MB to 512MB, you'd be looking
at least $100 anyway, and if the older eMac doesn't come with Tiger, there's
another $199. So the new model is certainly excellent value, consider the
better graphics card (which Tiger loves) and bigger hard drive as well.

So it's still a good price to get something with a SuperDrive,....but
depends if you want the "other fruit". :o)
(And budget of course).

I hope that helps. Drop me an email if you want more info.

Enjoy!

Kind Regards
Daniel
