They were never obsolete because, as it says on the sticker (that no one on the internet can ever seem to be bothered to read), that you can replace it every 2 years for new, more modern system for only 99 bucks.
and quite frankly, thats a fucking steal, considering what PC prices were like back in the late 90s, and with how fast technology was advancing.
Power users didn’t flock to these, but they were awesome for a certain demographic. Low skill early tech adopters. Grandma, grampa, mom and dad. Dudes out in rural areas, like my friend’s dad, who only needed to use the PC for 30 minutes a day to keep his farm operation running and couldn’t give 2 shits.
Several family members had these exact 433mhz emachines with the stickers. They were not power users, they were not gamers… They were people who typed with one finger chicken pecking to check email
