It depends largely on your budget. I suspect that the eMac is near the end of its life, because it's the only Apple product left with a CRT monitor, and this is a dead end technology. The G5 iMac offers much better performance.

Of course, for educational applications, you don't need a lot of processing power and the eMac is still a perfectly competent machine if you're on a tight budget. Don't forget that if you're planning on going to university, a notebook might be another alternative worth considering. The price of the iBook is very reasonable now compared to what it was when I bought mine a couple of years ago.
